Interaction of chromosome-6-encoded dystrophin related protein with the extracellular matrix.
Dystrophin-related protein/utrophin is a large, cytoskeletal protein that shares significant sequence similarity with dystrophin. Dystrophin-related protein is known to be enriched where cell-extracellular matrix contacts are well defined; however, the mechanism of dystrophin-related protein enrichment and its functional role(s) at these sites are yet to be defined. Here, we demonstrate that dy...
متن کاملThe subcellular distribution of chromosome 6-encoded dystrophin-related protein in the brain
Chromosome 6-encoded dystrophin-related-protein (DRP) shows significant structural similarities to dystrophin at the carboxyl terminus, though the two proteins are encoded on different chromosomes. Both DRP and dystrophin are expressed in muscle and brain and show some similarity in their subcellular localization. For example, in skeletal muscle both are expressed at neuromuscular and myotendin...
متن کاملChromosome 6 encoded RNaseT2 protein is a cell growth regulator
We have previously shown by chromosome transfer technique that chromosome 6 alters the phenotype of a variety of tumour cells and SV40 immortalized cells. We present here the phenotypic effects of the ectopic expression of RNaseT2, a highly conserved ribonuclease encoded by chromosome 6q27, in SV40 immortalized cell lines. We contrast our findings with those reported for ovarian carcinoma cell ...
متن کاملWhole exome sequencing revealed a novel dystrophin-related protein-2 (DRP2) deletion in an Iranian family with symptoms of polyneuropathy
Objective(s): Charcot-Marie Tooth disease (CMT) is one of the main inherited causes of motor and sensory neuropathies with variable expressivity and age-of onset. Although more than 70 genes have been identified for CMT, more studies are needed to discover other genes involved in CMT. Introduction of whole exome sequencing (WES) to capture all the exons may help to fin...
