Identification of cis-elements and transcription factors regulating neuronal activity-dependent transcription of human BDNF gene.
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is an important mediator of activity-dependent functions of the nervous system and its expression is dysregulated in several neuropsychiatric disorders. Regulation of rodent BDNF neuronal activity-dependent transcription has been relatively well characterized. Here, we have studied regulation of human BDNF (hBDNF) transcription by membrane depolarization...
متن کاملSelectable Marker Gene Removal and Expression of Transgene by Inducible Promoter Containing FFDD Cis-Acting elements in Transgenic plants
Abstract Background: Selectable marker gene (SMG) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. Transgenic crop production Background: Selectable marker gene (SMG) systems are critical for generation of transgenic crops. Transgenic crop production without using SMG is not economically feasible. However, SMGs are non-essential once an intact transgenic plant has been established. Eli...
متن کاملIdentification of cis-regulating elements and trans-acting factors regulating the expression of the gene encoding the small subunit of ribonucleotide reductase in Dictyostelium discoideum.
We have examined the promoter of rnrB, the gene encoding the small subunit of ribonucleotide reductase of Dictyostelium discoideum, using lacZ as a reporter gene. Deletion analysis showed that expression of this gene in vegetative cells involves an A/T-rich element, whereas its expression in prespore cells during development requires a region encompassing two G/C-rich elements, designated box A...
متن کاملCis-acting elements regulating the placenta-specific promoter of the bovine Cyp19 gene.
Cyp19 encodes aromatase cytochrome P450, the key enzyme of oestrogen biosynthesis. In the bovine placenta, the majority of Cyp19 transcripts include a 5' untranslated region which is encoded by exon 1.1; this suggests that its 5'-flanking region is the predominant placental promoter. The aim of the present investigation was to examine the promoter activity of this region and to map cis-acting r...
متن کاملDiscrete spatial and temporal cis-acting elements regulate transcription of the Arabidopsis floral homeotic gene APETALA3.
The APETALA3 floral homeotic gene is required for petal and stamen development in Arabidopsis. APETALA3 transcripts are first detected in a meristematic region that will give rise to the petal and stamen primordia, and expression is maintained in this region during subsequent development of these organs. To dissect how the APETALA3 gene is expressed in this spatially and temporally restricted d...
