Characterization of the porcine Nanog 5′-flanking region
OBJECTIVE Nanog, a homeodomain protein, has been investigated in humans and mice using embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Because of the limited availability of ESCs, few studies have reported the function and role of Nanog in porcine ESCs. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the location of the porcine Nanog chromosome and its basal promoter activity, which might have potential applications in...
متن کاملCharacterization of the Nanog 5′-flanking Region in Bovine
Bovine embryonic stem cells have potential for use in research, such as transgenic cattle generation and the study of developmental gene regulation. The Nanog may play a critical role in maintenance of the undifferentiated state of embryonic stem cells in the bovine, as in murine and human. Nevertheless, efforts to study the bovine Nanog for pluripotency-maintaining factors have been insufficie...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of the 5'-flanking region of the oxalate decarboxylase gene from Flammulina velutipes.
The oxalate-degrading enzyme, oxalate decarboxylase (OXDC), was purified and characterized from Flammulina velutipes, a basidiomycetous fungus [Mehta and Datta (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 23548-23553]. The cDNA cloning and analyses revealed that OXDC transcription was induced by oxalic acid. However, in this report, we show that OXDC transcription is induced by low pH, not by oxalate. To underst...
متن کاملCharacterization and functional analysis of the 5'-flanking region of the mouse 20alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase gene.
20alpha-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20alpha-HSD), which metabolizes progesterone to an inactive steroid in the corpus luteum of mice and rats but not of humans, is thought to play a crucial role in shortening the oestrous cycles in these rodent species. We determined the nucleotide sequence of the 5'-flanking region of the mouse 20alpha-HSD gene, and examined its promoter activity using a rat...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence and characterization of the 5' flanking region of the rat Ha-ras protooncogene.
Thyrotropin and cAMP stimulate growth of FRTL5 rat thyroid cells and increase c-Ha-ras mRNA levels. To study the mechanism by which thyrotropin enhances c-Ha-ras expression in the thyroid, we constructed a genomic library of FRTL5 DNA in the bacteriophage vector EMBL3. Using a v-Ha-ras probe (0.7-kilobase Sst I-Pst I fragment), we isolated eight clones containing portions of the FRTL5 c-Ha-ras ...
