Genes overexpressed in different human solid cancers exhibit different tissue-specific expression profiles.
We have analyzed gene expression in different normal human tissues and different types of solid cancers derived from these tissues. The cancers analyzed include brain (astrocytoma and glioblastoma), breast, colon, endometrium, kidney, liver, lung, ovary, prostate, skin, and thyroid cancers. Comparing gene expression in each normal tissue to 12 other normal tissues, we identified 4,917 tissue-se...
متن کاملDifferential expression of human interferon genes.
We developed a method for quantitating closely related mRNAs by S1 mapping and used it to determine the levels of mRNAs for IFN-beta, IFN-gamma and various alpha IFNs (IFN-alpha 1, -alpha 2, -alpha 4, -alpha 5, -alpha 6, -alpha 7, -alpha 8 and -alpha 14) in human peripheral blood leukocytes, lymphoblastoid (Namalwa), HeLa and human fibroblastic cells, induced in different fashions. The ratio of...
متن کاملEffect of adenovirus infection on expression of human histone genes.
The influence of adenovirus type 2 infection of HeLa cells upon expression of human histone genes was examined as a function of the period of infection. Histone RNA synthesis was assayed after run-off transcription in nuclei isolated from mock-infected cells and after various periods of adenovirus infection. Histone protein synthesis was measured by [3H]leucine labeling of intact cells and fluo...
متن کاملOrganization of human histone genes.
We describe the isolation and initial characterization of seven independent lambda Charon 4A recombinant phages which contain human histone genomic sequences (designated lambda HHG). Restriction maps of these clones and localization of the genes coding for histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 are presented. The presence of histone encoding regions in the lambda HHG clones was demonstrated by several i...
متن کاملInactivation of a histone methyltransferase by mutations in human cancers.
Histone methyltransferase (HMT)(1) class enzymes that methylate lysine residues of histones or proteins contain a conserved catalytic core termed the SET domain, which shares sequence homology with an independently described sequence motif, the PR domain. Intact PR or SET sequence is required for tumor suppression functions, but it remains unclear whether it is histone methyltransferase activit...
