DNA-Demethylase Regulated Genes Show Methylation-Independent Spatiotemporal Expression Patterns
Recent research has indicated that a subset of defense-related genes is downregulated in the Arabidopsis DNA demethylase triple mutant rdd (ros1 dml2 dml3) resulting in increased susceptibility to the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum. In rdd plants these downregulated genes contain hypermethylated transposable element sequences (TE) in their promoters, suggesting that this methylation repress...
متن کاملChromatin states of developmentally-regulated genes revealed by DNA and histone methylation patterns in zebrafish embryos.
Embryo development proceeds from a cascade of gene activation and repression events controlled by epigenetic modifications of DNA and histones. Little is known about epigenetic states in the developing zebrafish, despite its importance as a model organism. We report here DNA methylation and histone modification profiles of promoters of developmentally-regulated genes (pou5f1, sox2, sox3, klf4, ...
متن کاملMethylation Status of SOX17 and RUNX3 Genes in Acute Leukemia
Background: Several studies have examined the presence of DNA methylation of CpG islands in leukemia. Methylation of SOX17 and RUNX3 genes may play a role in leukemogenesis through silencing tumor suppressor genes. We investigated the methylation status of SOX17 and RUNX3 genes in patients with acute leukemia. Methods: In this case-control study, peripheral blood samples from 100 AML and 10...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of sexual dimorphism genes expressed in chicken embryonic gonads.
In chicken, the bipotential embryonic gonad differentiates into either a pair of testes or an ovary, but few genes that underlying the gonadal sex differentiation have been identified and the sex-determination gene is still unknown. To identify more genes involved in chicken sex differentiation, we employed suppression subtractive hybridization to isolate differentially expressed genes between ...
متن کاملTranscriptomic Analyses Reveal Novel Genes with Sexually Dimorphic Expression in the Zebrafish Gonad and Brain
BACKGROUND Our knowledge on zebrafish reproduction is very limited. We generated a gonad-derived cDNA microarray from zebrafish and used it to analyze large-scale gene expression profiles in adult gonads and other organs. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We have identified 116638 gonad-derived zebrafish expressed sequence tags (ESTs), 21% of which were isolated in our lab. Following in silico n...
