Interchromosomal association and gene regulation in trans.
The nucleus is an ordered three-dimensional entity, and organization of the genome within the nuclear space might have implications for orchestrating gene expression. Recent technological developments have revealed that chromatin is folded into loops bringing distal regulatory elements into intimate contact with the genes that they regulate. Such intrachromosomal contacts appear to be a general...
متن کاملthe study of aaag repeat polymorphism in promoter of errg gene and its association with the risk of breast cancer in isfahan region
چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولBlurring cis and trans in Gene Regulation
In this issue of Cell, Axel and colleagues (Lomvardas et al., 2006) report that a single enhancer of an odorant receptor (OR) gene cluster interacts with multiple OR gene promoters on different chromosomes. This study suggests a mechanism that allows olfactory sensory neurons to choose randomly and express only one out of more than 1000 OR genes.
متن کاملDetection of human interchromosomal trans-splicing in sequence databanks
Trans-splicing is a common phenomenon in nematodes and kinetoplastids, and it has also been reported in other organisms, including humans. Up to now, all in silico strategies to find evidence of trans-splicing in humans have required that the candidate sequences follow the consensus splicing site rules (spliceosome-mediated mechanism). However, this criterion is not supported by the best human ...
متن کاملPolymorphic Cis- and Trans-Regulation of Human Gene Expression
Expression levels of human genes vary extensively among individuals. This variation facilitates analyses of expression levels as quantitative phenotypes in genetic studies where the entire genome can be scanned for regulators without prior knowledge of the regulatory mechanisms, thus enabling the identification of unknown regulatory relationships. Here, we carried out such genetic analyses with...
