Schizosaccharomyces U6 genes have a sequence within their introns that matches the B box consensus of tRNA internal promoters.
The gene for the U6 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is interrupted by an intron whose structure is similar to those found in messenger RNA precursors (pre-mRNAs) (1). This is the only known example of a split snRNA gene from any organism--animal, plant, or yeast. To address the uniqueness of the S. pombe U6 gene, we have investigated the structures of th...
متن کاملThe Drosophila ribosomal protein S6 gene includes a 3' triplication that arose by unequal crossing-over.
Ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6) is the major phosphoprotein of the small ribosomal subunit of eukaryotes and is phosphorylated in response to treatment with mitogens and other stimuli. We have examined the organization of the rpS6 gene of Drosophila melanogaster. Comparisons of a cDNA with genomic DNA identify a transcription unit including three exons. Two tandem repeats downstream of this transcr...
متن کاملIdentification of highly specific localized sequence motifs in human ribosomal protein gene promoters.
For ribosomal protein (RP) genes the start of transcription is rigidly controlled to maintain the 5'-TOP signal on the messenger RNA. The responsible regulatory mechanism is not yet fully understood. Careful comparative analysis of their proximal promoter sequences reveals common characteristics and thus provides clues to the underlying mechanism. We have extracted the proximal promoters of the...
متن کاملA characterization of the elements comprising the promoter of the mouse ribosomal protein gene RPS16.
The elements comprising the mouse rpS16 promoter were characterized by transfection experiments with mutant genes in which various portions of the 5' flanking region and exon I were removed or substituted with extraneous DNA sequence. These experiments were carried out with otherwise intact rpS16 genes transfected into monkey kidney (COS) cells and also with chimeric rpS16-CAT gene constructs t...
متن کاملMiRNA-Sequence Indicates That Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Exosomes Have Similar Mechanism to Enhance Cardiac Repair
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) repair infarcted heart through paracrine mechanism. We sought to compare the effectiveness of MSCs and MSC-derived exosomes (MSC-Exo) in repairing infarcted hearts and to identify how MSC-Exo mediated cardiac repair is regulated. In a rat myocardial infarction model, we found that MSC-Exo inhibited cardiac fibrosis, inflammation, and improved cardiac function. The ...
