Induction of premature chromosome condensation Premature chromosome condensation (PCC) was induced in HeLa cells using polyethylene glycol-mediated fusion of lectin-bound
The mammalian kinetochore is a specialized structure, found at the surface of the primary constriction of metaphase chromosomes, that plays a role in both the capture of spindle microtubules and movements associated with anaphase A (for a review, see Rattner, 1991). The kinetochore is first detected as an aggregate of fine fibrillar material associated with condensing chromatin in midto late-pr...
متن کاملBiological Dose Assessment by Chemical Induction of Premature Chromosome Condensation
Dose assessment of radiation victims is a key element in medical management of radiation accidents. At high radiation doses (> 6 Gy), dicentric assay lose its efficiency and premature chromosome condensation (PCC) assay was proposed to overcome the restrictions of dicentric assay. It was shown that PCC ring is more suitable and simpler than dicentric for biodosimetry in high radiation doses. In...
متن کاملTransient Growth Arrest in Escherichia coli Induced by Chromosome Condensation
MukB is a bacterial SMC (structural maintenance of chromosome) protein that regulates the global folding of the Escherichia coli chromosome by bringing distant DNA segments together. We report that moderate overproduction of MukB may lead, depending on strain and growth conditions, to transient growth arrest. In DH5α cells, overproduction of MukB or MukBEF using pBAD expression system triggered...
متن کاملApoptosis induced by dioscin in Hela cells.
Dioscin, a saponin extracted from the root of Polygonatum Zanlanscianense Pamp, markedly inhibited proliferation of Hela cells. The results indicated that Hela cells underwent apoptosis in dose- and time-dependent manners when treated with Dioscin. Caspase-3, -8 and -9 activities were also detected. The low enzymatic activity of caspase-8 and high activity of caspase-9 showed that the mitochond...
متن کاملRapid apoptosis induced by Shiga toxin in HeLa cells.
Apoptosis was induced rapidly in HeLa cells after exposure to bacterial Shiga toxin (Stx1 and Stx2; 10 ng/ml). Approximately 60% of HeLa cells became apoptotic within 4 h as detected by DNA fragmentation, terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay, and electron microscopy. Stx1-induced apoptosis required enzymatic activity of the Stx1A subunit, and...
