Reconstruction of appropriate tubulin and actin gene regulation after transient transfection of cloned beta-tubulin and beta-actin genes.

Treadmilling of tubulin and actin.

ارزیابی راندمان تعدادی از ژن‌های مرجع در آلوروپوس تحت شرایط تنش شوری

     Application of wild type crops or wild relatives’ cultivars that are halophyte in plant breeding program would provide better results in order to develop cultivars that are resistant toward drought as well as salinity. Recently, Aeluropus littoralis has attracted the attention of researcher in order to identify novel genes and their regulatory elements that are involved in salinity stress....

Synthesis of beta-tubulin, actin, and other proteins in axons of sympathetic neurons in compartmented cultures.

The proteins needed for growth and maintenance of the axon are generally believed to be synthesized in the cell bodies and delivered to the axons by anterograde transport. However, recent reports suggest that some proteins can also be synthesized within axons. We used [35S]methionine metabolic labeling to investigate axonal protein synthesis in compartmented cultures of sympathetic neurons from...

Sequence of a highly divergent beta tubulin gene reveals regional heterogeneity in the beta tubulin polypeptide

The nucleotide sequence of a chicken genomic DNA segment containing the chicken beta 4 tubulin gene has been determined. The predicted amino acid sequence of beta 4 is surprisingly divergent from that of the chicken beta 2 gene that encodes the dominant neural beta tubulin. beta 4 differs from beta 2 at 36 residue positions and encodes a polypeptide that is four amino acids longer, yielding a d...

Chaperonin-mediated folding of actin and tubulin

T HE central dogma of molecular biology holds that proteins contain within their primary amino acid sequence all the information that is required to dictate their three-dimensional structure. In principle, therefore, proteins can fold spontaneously (2). It is now clear, however, that the proper folding of many proteins requires facilitation. The facilitation reaction is accomplished via interac...
