Mouse c-mos oncogene activation is prevented by upstream sequences.
Although the molecularly cloned mouse c-mos oncogene locus can be efficiently activated by insertion of a retroviral long terminal repeat (LTR) 5' to its coding region, only low-frequency transformation occurs with the LTR element inserted 3' to this region. Analysis of several of the latter transformed cell lines suggested that loss of 2 kilobases (kb) of normal mouse DNA sequences preceding c...
متن کاملActivation of the c-mos oncogene in a mouse plasmacytoma by insertion of an endogenous intracisternal A-particle genome.
The activation of the cellular oncogene c-mos in mouse plasmacytoma XRPC24 was found to result from the insertion of a 4.7-kilobase-pair cellular DNA element, within the c-mos coding region. The element terminates on both sides with a direct repeat of around 335 nucleotides. The repeat as well as internal sequences of the element show strong homology to endogenous intracisternal A-particle (IAP...
متن کاملHsp90 is required for c-Mos activation and biphasic MAP kinase activation in Xenopus oocytes.
During Xenopus oocyte maturation, the Mos protein kinase is synthesized and activates the MAP kinase cascade. In this report, we demonstrate that the synthesis and activation of Mos are two separable processes. We find that Hsp90 function is required for activation and phosphorylation of Mos and full activation of the MAP kinase cascade. Once Mos is activated, Hsp90 function is no longer requir...
متن کاملActivation of the c-ski oncogene by overexpression.
The v-ski oncogene is a truncated version of the cellular proto-oncogene, c-ski, and lacks sequences coding for both the N- and C-terminal ends of the c-ski protein. In the region of overlap, v-ski and c-ski differ by only one amino acid. To determine whether these differences underlie v-ski's oncogenic activation, we have cloned cDNAs for several alternatively spliced c-ski mRNAs and introduce...
متن کاملTissue-specific characterisation of DNA methylation in the gonad-specific proto-oncogene, c-mos, in the male laboratory mouse.
The proto-oncogene, c-mos, which is expressed only in the germ cells of both testis and ovary, plays an important role in meiotic maturation of these cells. In this research, the methylation status of several CpG sites, present both upstream and within the coding region of the c-mos gene, has been studied. The HpaII and HhaI sites examined in the 5' half of the coding region were unmethylated i...
