P140: The Roles of Micro RNA in Multiple Sclerosis Disease
As one of the most common neurological disabilities in young adults, Multiple sclerosis (MS) has characteristics of inflammation, demyelination, neuro-axonal damage, and progressive prolonged disability. The disease is clinically divided into three general categories according to response to treatment: Relapsing-Remitting MS (RRMS), Primary Progressive MS (PPMS) and Secondary Progressive MS (SP...
متن کاملMultiple roles of the RNA polymerase β′ SW2 region in transcription initiation, promoter escape, and RNA elongation
Interactions of RNA polymerase (RNAP) with nucleic acids must be tightly controlled to ensure precise and processive RNA synthesis. The RNAP β'-subunit Switch-2 (SW2) region is part of a protein network that connects the clamp domain with the RNAP body and mediates opening and closing of the active center cleft. SW2 interacts with the template DNA near the RNAP active center and is a target for...
متن کاملEnhancement of RNA Interference Effect in P19 EC Cells by an RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase
Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is a phenomenon uses double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) to specifically inhibit gene expression. The non-specific silencing caused by interferon response to dsRNA in mammalian cells limits the potential of utilizing RNAi to study gene function. Duplexes of 21-nucleotide short interfering dsRNA (siRNA) inhibit gene expression by RNAi. In some organisms, siRNA can als...
متن کاملThe bacteriophage T4 late-transcription coactivator gp33 binds the flap domain of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase.
Transcription of bacteriophage T4 late genes requires concomitant DNA replication. T4 late promoters, which consist of a single 8-bp -10 motif, are recognized by a holoenzyme containing Escherichia coli RNA polymerase core and the T4-encoded promoter specificity subunit, gp55. Initiation of transcription at these promoters by gp55-holoenzyme is inefficient, but is greatly activated by the DNA-l...
متن کاملThe alpha subunit of RNA polymerase and transcription antitermination.
The N gene product of coliphage gamma, with a number of host proteins (Nus factors), regulates phage gene expression by modifying RNA polymerase to a form that overrides transcription-termination signals. Mutations in host nus genes diminish this N-mediated antitermination. Here, we report the isolation and characterization of the rpoAD305E mutation, a single amino acid change in the carboxy te...
