P-70: Evidence for Differential Gene Expression of A Major EpigeneticModifier Enzyme, de novo DNA Methyltransferase 3b, through Vitrification of Mouse Ovary Tissue
Background: Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a feasible method to preserve female reproductive potential, especially in young patients with cancer or in women at risk of premature ovarian failure. Vitrification has recently emerged as a new trend for biological specimen preservation. On the other hand, gene expression that changes during vitrification can influence oocyte maturation and need ...
متن کاملAbnormal regulation of DNA methyltransferase expression during colorectal carcinogenesis.
Somatic changes in CpG dinucleotide methylation occur quite commonly in human cancer cell DNA. Relative to DNA from normal human colonic cells, DNA from human colorectal cancer cells typically displays regional CpG dinucleotide hypermethylation amid global CpG dinucleotide hypomethylation. The role of the maintenance DNA methyltransferase (DNMT1) in the acquisition of such abnormal CpG dinucleo...
متن کاملAn Assessment of the Role of DNA Adenine Methyltransferase on Gene Expression Regulation in E coli
N6-Adenine methylation is an important epigenetic signal, which regulates various processes, such as DNA replication and repair and transcription. In gamma-proteobacteria, Dam is a stand-alone enzyme that methylates GATC sites, which are non-randomly distributed in the genome. Some of these overlap with transcription factor binding sites. This work describes a global computational analysis of a...
متن کاملRegulation of expression of the DNA repair gene O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase via protein kinase C-mediated signaling.
O6-Alkylguanine is the major mutagenic and cytotoxic DNA lesion induced by alkylating agents, including 2-chloroethyl-N-nitrosourea-based antitumor drugs. This lesion is repaired by O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), the expression of which is highly variable in both normal tissues and in tumor cells. The promoter of the human MGMT gene was found to contain two putative activator pr...
متن کاملRegulation of Gene Expression by PI3K in Mouse Growth Plate Chondrocytes
BACKGROUND Endochondral ossification, the process through which long bones are formed, involves chondrocyte proliferation and hypertrophic differentiation in the cartilage growth plate. In a previous publication we showed that pharmacological inhibition of the PI3K signaling pathway results in reduced endochondral bone growth, and in particular, shortening of the hypertrophic zone in a tibia or...
