Dose-dependent regulation of target gene expression and cell proliferation by c-Myc levels
The proto-oncogene c-myc encodes a basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor (c-Myc). c-Myc plays a crucial role in cell growth and proliferation. Here, we examined how expression of c-Myc target genes and cell proliferation depend on variation of c-Myc protein levels. We show that proliferation rates, the number of cells in S-phase, and cell size increased in a dose-dependent ...
متن کاملSystematic screening of an arrayed cDNA library by PCR.
We have developed a PCR-based method for rapid and effective screening of arrayed cDNA libraries. This strategy directly addresses the limitations of conventional hybridization-based schemes and provides a more rapid, cost-effective, and sensitive method compatible with large-scale and routine cDNA clone recovery. To prepare arrayed libraries, 1-2 x 10(6) cDNA clones were propagated as individu...
متن کاملDetection and isolation of RNA-binding proteins by RNA-ligand screening of a cDNA expression library.
A screening assay for the detection of RNA-binding proteins was developed. It allows the rapid isolation of cDNA clones coding for proteins with sequence-specific binding affinity to a target RNA. For developing the screening protocol, constituents of the human U1 snRNP were utilized as model system. The RNA partner consisted of the U1-RNA stem-loop II and the corresponding protein consisted of...
متن کاملModulators of Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation and Viability Identified by Short-Hairpin RNA Library Screening
There is significant need to identify novel prostate cancer drug targets because current hormone therapies eventually fail, leading to a drug-resistant and fatal disease termed castration-resistant prostate cancer. To functionally identify genes that, when silenced, decrease prostate cancer cell proliferation or induce cell death in combination with antiandrogens, we employed an RNA interferenc...
متن کاملEpithelial cell organization suppresses Myc function by attenuating Myc expression.
c-Myc is an oncogene transcription factor that causes cancer in many settings, including solid tumors that arise in the context of organized tissue structures. Given that disruption of tissue architecture frequently occurs in cancer, there is considerable interest in how cell organization impacts oncogene function. A previous report found that organization of mammary epithelial cells into defin...
