PHOX2A and PHOX2B genes are highly co-expressed in human neuroblastoma.
The detection of PHOX2B mutations in a small proportion of patients affected with either familial or sporadic neuroblastoma (NB), has arisen interest on the possible pathogenic role of this gene in the disease determination. In this light, we have carried out a quantitative expression analysis of PHOX2B and its paralogue PHOX2A on a panel of NB cell lines and NB tumour samples to identify a pos...
متن کاملDiscovery of three genes specifically expressed in human prostate by expressed sequence tag database analysis.
A procedure is described to discover genes that are specifically expressed in human prostate. The procedure involves searching the expressed sequence tag (EST) database for genes that have many related EST sequences from human prostate cDNA libraries but none or few from nonprostate human libraries. The selected candidate EST clones were tested by RNA dot blots to examine tissue specificity and...
متن کاملIn plants, highly expressed genes are the least compact.
In both the monocot rice and the dicot Arabidopsis, highly expressed genes have more and longer introns and a larger primary transcript than genes expressed at a low level: higher expressed genes tend to be less compact than lower expressed genes. In animal genomes, it is the other way round. Although the length differences in plant genes are much smaller than in animals, these findings indicat...
متن کاملSalmonella enterica highly expressed genes are disease specific.
During in vitro broth culture, bacterial gene expression is typically dominated by highly expressed factors involved in protein biosynthesis, maturation, and folding, but it is unclear if this also applies to conditions in natural environments. Here, we used a promoter trap strategy with an unstable green fluorescent protein reporter that can be detected in infected mouse tissues to identify 21...
متن کاملHighly Expressed Genes Are Preferentially Co-Opted for C4 Photosynthesis
Novel adaptations are generally assembled by co-opting pre-existing genetic components, but the factors dictating the suitability of genes for new functions remain poorly known. In this work, we used comparative transcriptomics to determine the attributes that increased the likelihood of some genes being co-opted for C4 photosynthesis, a convergent complex trait that boosts productivity in trop...
