Identification of cis- and trans-acting elements regulating calretinin expression in mesothelioma cells
Calretinin (CALB2) is a diagnostic marker for epithelioid mesothelioma. It is also a prognostic marker since patients with tumors expressing high calretinin levels have better overall survival. Silencing of calretinin decreases viability of epithelioid mesothelioma cells. Our aim was to elucidate mechanisms regulating calretinin expression in mesothelioma. Analysis of calretinin transcript and ...
متن کاملVasopressin mRNA localization in nerve cells: characterization of cis-acting elements and trans-acting factors.
mRNA localization is a complex pathway. Besides mRNA sorting per se, this process includes aspects of regulated translation. It requires protein factors that interact with defined sequences (or sequence motifs) of the transcript, and the protein/RNA complexes are finally guided along the cytoskeleton to their ultimate destinations. The mRNA encoding the vasopressin (VP) precursor protein is loc...
متن کاملIdentification of cis-regulating elements and trans-acting factors regulating the expression of the gene encoding the small subunit of ribonucleotide reductase in Dictyostelium discoideum.
We have examined the promoter of rnrB, the gene encoding the small subunit of ribonucleotide reductase of Dictyostelium discoideum, using lacZ as a reporter gene. Deletion analysis showed that expression of this gene in vegetative cells involves an A/T-rich element, whereas its expression in prespore cells during development requires a region encompassing two G/C-rich elements, designated box A...

متن کاملcis- and trans-acting elements in flavivirus RNA replication.
Most of the seven flavivirus nonstructural proteins (NS1 to NS5) encoded in the distal two-thirds of the RNA positive-sense genome are believed to be essential components of RNA replication complexes. To explore the functional relationships of these components in RNA replication, we used trans-complementation analysis of full-length infectious RNAs of Kunjin (KUN) virus with a range of lethal i...
