Molecular Biology of the Gene (Watson, J. D.)

Molecular Biology of the Gene

The tremendous advances of recent years in molecular biology warrant a summary statement of our knowledge in the form of a text for the beginner in the field. James D. Watson, 1962 Nobelist in Physiology and Medicine, has superbly filled this need with his lucid account of the Molecular Biology of the Gene. As the author has aimed his report toward the nonspecialist, he has assumed only the inf...

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...

Phospholipase D: molecular and cell biology of a novel gene family.

Interaction of extracellular-signal molecules with cell-surface receptors often activates a phospholipase D (PLD)-mediated hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine and other phospholipids, generating phosphatidic acid. The activation of PLD is believed to play an important role in the regulation of cell function and cell fate. Multiple PLD activities were characterized in eukaryotic cells, and, more r...

The molecular biology of human renin and its gene.

The molecular biology of renin, prorenin, and the renin gene have been studied. A tissue-specific pattern of expression was found in rat and human tissues. In the human placenta, the transfected and endogenous renin promoters are active, and renin mRNA levels and transfected promoter activity are increased by a calcium ionophore plus cAMP. Cultured pituitary AtT-20 cells transfected with a prep...
