Cell-specific expression of cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in transgenic mice.
The gene encoding cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is expressed in multiple cell types in diverse tissues including liver, kidney, intestine, and white and brown adipose tissues. It can thus be considered a model system for examining the regulation of cell-specific transcription. The PEPCK gene is transcribed from a single start site, but studies of transgenic mice have revea...
متن کاملThe gene encoding the cytosolic form of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) from the chicken.
The gene for cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) (EC 4.1.1.32) from the chicken was isolated from a recombinant library containing the chicken genome in phage lambda Charon 4A. The isolated clone, lambda PCK1cc, contains the complete gene for the enzyme as well as both 5' and 3' flanking sequences. The gene is approximately 8 kilobases in length divided into 8 exons, as demonstrat...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of the gene coding for cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) from the rat.
The gene for cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) [GTP:oxaloacetate carboxy-lyase (transphosphorylating), EC 4.1.1.32] from the rat was isolated from a recombinant library containing the rat genome in phage lambda Charon 4A. The isolated clone, lambda PCK1, contains the complete gene for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and approximately equal to 7 kilobases (kb) of flanking seque...
متن کاملMultihormonal Regulation of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase Gene Transcription
We used a nuclear RNA transcript elongation assay to show that cAMP analogs and dexamethasone cause a selective increase of transcription of the P-enolpyruvate carboxykinase gene in H4IIE hepatoma cells. 8-(4-~hlorophenylthio)-cAMP increased transcription within 5 min and the maximal rate, generally 10-15fold above the basal rate, was attained by 30 min. This increase was of sufficient magnitud...
متن کاملDevelopmental stability in stocks of White Leghorn chickens.
The degree of asymmetry in bilateral morphological characters may reflect genetic and environmental stressors. Shank length and diameter, weight and length of the first primary wing feather, and distance between the junction of upper and lower mandibles and auditory canal (face length) were used to classify bilateral types and measure relative asymmetry (RA) in six genetic stocks. The stocks we...
