IGF Binding Protein-5 Induces Cell Senescence
Cellular senescence is the complex process of deterioration that drives the aging of an organism, resulting in the progressive loss of organ function and eventually phenotypic aging. Senescent cells undergo irreversible growth arrest, usually by inducing telomere shortening. Alternatively, senescence may also occur prematurely in response to various stress stimuli, such as oxidative stress, DNA...
متن کاملA natural killer cell granule protein that induces DNA fragmentation and apoptosis
We report the purification from a rat natural killer (RNK) large granular lymphocyte leukemia of a 32-kD granule protein that induces rapid DNA fragmentation and apoptosis. The protein, which we have called "fragmentin," was capable of causing DNA from intact YAC-1 cells to be cleaved into oligonucleosomal-sized fragments and producing severe chromatin condensation within 1 h. Amino acid sequen...
متن کاملRNA binding protein RBM14 promotes radio-resistance in glioblastoma by regulating DNA repair and cell differentiation
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive and lethal type of brain tumor. Standard treatment for GBM patients is surgery followed by radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy, but tumors always recur. Traditional therapies seem to fail because they eliminate only the bulk of the tumors and spare a population of stem-like cells termed tumor-initiating cells. The stem-like state and preferentia...
متن کاملCooperative binding of polyamines induces the Escherichia coli single-strand binding protein-DNA binding mode transitions.
The Escherichia coli single-strand binding (SSB) protein is an essential protein involved in DNA replication, recombination, and repair processes. The tetrameric protein binds to ss nucleic acids in a number of different binding modes in vitro. These modes differ in the number of nucleotides occluded per SSB tetramer and in the type and degree of cooperative complexes that are formed with ss DN...
متن کاملEvidence that protein binding specifies sites of DNA demethylation.
It has been hypothesized that protein factors may protect CpG islands from methyltransferase during development and that demethylation may involve protein-DNA interactions at demethylated sites. However, direct evidence has been lacking. In this study, demethylation at the EBNA-1 binding sites of the Epstein-Barr virus latent replication origin, oriP, was investigated by using human cells. Seve...
