Catalytically inactive telomerase in oncogenesis
Ends of human chromosomes called telomeres are essential for their structural and functional stability [1]. However, these DNA structures designed to function via a plethora of proteins and RNA molecules that bind them, encounter progressive shortening with each cell division due to the end replication problem. Terc, a long non coding (lnc)RNA and the reverse transcriptase TERT which uses Terc ...

متن کاملTelomerase Induction in HPV Infection and Oncogenesis
Telomerase extends the repetitive DNA at the ends of linear chromosomes, and it is normally active in stem cells. When expressed in somatic diploid cells, it can lead to cellular immortalization. Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are associated with and high-risk for cancer activate telomerase through the catalytic subunit of telomerase, human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). The expressio...
متن کاملThe Regulation of Telomerase in Oncogenesis
The influence that the expression of the human (glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)) neurotrophic factor has on the morphology and proliferative activity of embryonic stem cells (SC) of a mouse with R1 lineage, as well as their ability to form embroid bodies (EB), has been studied. Before that, using a PCR (polymerase chain reaction) coupled with reverse transcription, it was shown that, i...
متن کاملTransitions to catalytically inactive conformations in EGFR kinase.
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a key protein in cellular signaling, and its kinase domain (EGFR kinase) is an intensely pursued target of small-molecule drugs. Although both catalytically active and inactive conformations of EGFR kinase have been resolved crystallographically, experimental characterization of the transitions between these conformations remains difficult. Using u...
