Inhibition of glutamine synthetase II expression by the product of the gstI gene.
We report the identification of a previously unrecognized gene that is involved in the regulation of the Rhizobium leguminosarum glnII (glutamine synthetase II) gene. This gene, which is situated immediately upstream of glnII, was identified by means of a deletion/complementation analysis performed in the heterologous background of Klebsiella pneumoniae. It has been designated gstI (glutamine s...
متن کاملHuman phosphoribosylpyrophosphate synthetase. Kinetic mechanism and end product inhibition.
Human PP-ribose-P synthetase, partially purified from erythrocytes, was found to have Michaelis constants for ribose-S-P, MgATP, and magnesium of 33 PM, 14 PM, and 0.2 mu, respectively. Based on studies of initial velocity and product inhibition, the kinetic mechanism is postulated to be an ordered Bi BE reaction with ribose-5-P binding first and PP-ribose-P being released last. Magnesium binds...
متن کاملSignal transduction pathways in the induction of 2',5'-oligoadenylate synthetase gene expression by interferon alpha/beta.
Treatment of quiescent BALB/c mouse 3T3 cells with murine interferon alpha/beta (IFN-alpha/beta) (1000 units/ml) leads to the appearance at 4 hr of 1.7-kilobase 2',5'-oligoadenylate (2',5'-OAS)mRNA as detected by Northern blot analysis. This mRNA accumulates for at least 18 hr. Two protein kinase C activators, 1,2-dioctanoyl glycerol and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, suppress, whereas the ca...
متن کاملImmune interferon inhibits proliferation and induces 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase gene expression in human vascular smooth muscle cells.
Proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) contributes to formation of the complicated human atherosclerotic plaque. These lesions also contain macrophages, known to secrete SMC mitogens, and T lymphocytes. Many of the SMC in the lesions express class II major histocompatibility antigens, an indication that activated T cells secrete immune IFN-gamma locally in the plaque. We therefore ...
متن کاملEffective inhibition of human cytomegalovirus gene expression by DNA-based external guide sequences.
To investigate whether a 12 nucleotide DNA-based miniEGSs can silence the expression of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) UL49 gene efficiently, A HeLa cell line stably expressing UL49 gene was constructed and the putative miniEGSs (UL49-miniEGSs) were assayed in the stable cell line. Quantitative RT-PCR and western blot results showed a reduction of 67% in UL49 expression level in HeLa cells that w...
