Tumor inhibition by genomically integrated inducible RNAi-cassettes
RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a powerful tool to induce loss-of-function phenotypes by post-transcriptional silencing of gene expression. In this study we wondered whether inducible RNAi-cassettes integrated into cellular DNA possess the power to trigger neoplastic growth. For this purpose inducible RNAi vectors containing tetracycline (Tet)-responsive derivatives of the H1 promoter fo...
متن کاملPromoters and control elements: designing expression cassettes for gene therapy.
It has become apparent that the clinical success anticipated in the field of gene therapy has been limited by progress in several of the fundamental areas of genetics, molecular and cellular biology relevant to its application. Whilst a great deal of effort has been made in the evaluation of transgenes, it is only more recently with the advance of vector systems that attention has begun to be f...
متن کاملRNA Regulatory Elements and Polyadenylation in Plants
Alternative poly(A) site choice (also known as alternative polyadenylation, or APA) has the potential to affect gene expression in qualitative and quantitative ways. APA may affect as many as 82% of all expressed genes in a plant. The consequences of APA include the generation of transcripts with differing 3'-UTRs (and thus differing regulatory potential) and of transcripts with differing prote...
متن کاملThe Repetitive Sequence Database and Mining Putative Regulatory Elements in Gene Promoter Regions
At least 43% of the human genome is occupied by repetitive elements. Moreover, around 51% of the rice genome is occupied by repetitive elements. The analysis of repetitive elements reveals that repetitive elements in our genome may have been very important in the evolutionary genomics. The first part of this study is to describe a database of repetitive elements - RSDB. The RSDB database contai...
متن کاملDesign, simplified cloning, and in-silico analysis of multisite small interfering RNA-targeting cassettes
Multiple gene silencing is being required to target and tangle metabolic pathways in eukaryotes and researchers have to develop a subtle method for construction of RNA interference (RNAi) cassettes. Although, several vectors have been developed due to different screening and cloning strategies but still some potential limitations remain to be dissolved. Here, we worked out a simple cloning stra...
