Oncogenic HMGA2: short or small?
The High Mobility Group A (HMGA) family of proteins are architectural transcription factors that bind to DNA and introduce structural alterations in chromatin. The HMGA family consists of two members, HMGA1 and HMGA2, which are encoded by separate genes. As one of the major nonhistone chromosomal proteins, HMGA proteins are multifunctional and are involved in many fundamental cellular processes...
متن کاملOverexpression and oncogenic function of HMGA2 in endometrial serous carcinogenesis.
The high-mobility group A protein 2 (HMGA2) is a non-histone chromatin factor highly expressed in fetal tissue and malignant tumors but rarely detected within normal adult tissues. The clinical implications and biological functions of HMGA2 in endometrial carcinoma are largely unknown. Here we report that HMGA2 expression was barely detected in benign endometrium samples (2 of 28 samples). Howe...
متن کاملDisrupting the pairing between let-7 and Hmga2 enhances oncogenic transformation.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are approximately 22-nucleotide RNAs that can pair to sites within messenger RNAs to specify posttranscriptional repression of these messages. Aberrant miRNA expression can contribute to tumorigenesis, but which of the many miRNA-target relationships are relevant to this process has been unclear. Here, we report that chromosomal translocations previously associated with human...
متن کاملSmall Cuts – Creating Small Short Films
Discussions about mobile applications and businesses often deal with technical issues on distribution and representation. Content, when discussed, is typically considered as a set of measurable units, like size, form and version, and left with that. This paper stresses the importance of also regarding content as the result of a creative process. A content theory is presented and used as a backd...
متن کاملA Non-Synonymous HMGA2 Variant Decreases Height in Shetland Ponies and Other Small Horses
The identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) such as height and their underlying causative variants is still challenging and often requires large sample sizes. In humans hundreds of loci with small effects control the heritable portion of height variability. In domestic animals, typically only a few loci with comparatively large effects explain a major fraction of the heritability. We in...
