Divergent GW182 functional domains in the regulation of translational silencing
MicroRNA (miRNA)-mediated gene regulation has become a major focus in many biological processes. GW182 and its long isoform TNGW1 are marker proteins of GW/P bodies and bind to Argonaute proteins of the RNA induced silencing complex. The goal of this study is to further define and distinguish the repression domain(s) in human GW182/TNGW1. Two non-overlapping regions, Δ12 (amino acids 896-1219) ...
متن کاملDrosophila development: Homeodomains and translational control
Translation of the transcription factor caudal is repressed at the anterior end of the Drosophila embryo. Surprisingly, the DNA-binding homeodomain of the transcription factor Bicoid mediates this repression by binding caudal mRNA.
متن کاملPost-translational control of alcohol dehydrogenase levels in Drosophila melanogaster.
A trans-acting regulatory gene that alters in vivo protein levels of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) has been mapped to a region of the third chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster. The gene has been found to affect the in vivo stability of ADH protein. It was not found to alter levels of total protein of two other enzymes assayed. The action of the gene over development and its possible mode of con...
متن کاملFunctional Integration of mRNA Translational Control Programs
Regulated mRNA translation plays a key role in control of cell cycle progression in a variety of physiological and pathological processes, including in the self-renewal and survival of stem cells and cancer stem cells. While targeting mRNA translation presents an attractive strategy for control of aberrant cell cycle progression, mRNA translation is an underdeveloped therapeutic target. Regulat...
متن کاملTranslational control of gurken mRNA in Drosophila development.
Localized mRNA translation is a widespread mechanism for targeting protein synthesis, important for cell fate, motility and pathogenesis. In Drosophila, the spatiotemporal control of gurken/TGF-α mRNA translation is required for establishing the embryonic body axes. A number of recent studies have highlighted key aspects of the mechanism of gurken mRNA translational control at the dorsoanterior...
