Tissue Specific Expression of Human Calcitonin Gene in Potato Tubers by an Organ Specific Promoter
To increase the production level of heterologous proteins in plants, strategies such as choice of strongerpromoters, optimization of codon usage and specific localization of foreign proteins are of major concern.Calcitonin (CT), a 32 amino acid polypeptide is a powerful and specific inhibitor of bone resorption and isused to treat several human diseases. Calcitonin activity is...

متن کاملAdipokine gene transcription level in adipose tissue of runt piglets.
Runt piglets were used as a model for neonatal stress to test the hypothesis that stress during the pre-weaning period can alter adipokine gene transcription levels. Runts were selected by birth mass <1kg and compared to littermates (controls) of mean litter weight. Subcutaneous (SQ) and perirenal (PR) adipose tissues were collected at d1 (n=5), d7 (n=7) or d21 (n=9) of age. Real time PCR was u...
متن کاملMolecular Mechanism of the Metallothionein Gene Expression Mediated by Metal-Responsive Transcription Factor 1
Metal-responsive transcription factor 1 (MTF-1) is essential for activating transcription of the metallothionein genes in response to multiple species of heavy metals by binding to the metal-responsive element (MRE) located in the upstream region of the genes. In contrast, MTF-1 binding to the MRE in vitro is induced only by zinc ions, suggesting that MTF-1 acts as a zinc sensor protein. Althou...
متن کاملTissue-specific splicing factor gene expression signatures
The alternative splicing code that controls and coordinates the transcriptome in complex multicellular organisms remains poorly understood. It has long been argued that regulation of alternative splicing relies on combinatorial interactions between multiple proteins, and that tissue-specific splicing decisions most likely result from differences in the concentration and/or activity of these pro...
