Metazoan rDNA enhancer acts by making more genes transcriptionally active
Enhancers could, in principle, function by increasing the rate of reinitiation on individual adjacent active promoters or by increasing the probability that an adjacent promoter is activated for transcription. We have addressed this issue for the repetitive metazoan rDNA enhancer by microinjecting Xenopus oocytes with enhancer-less and enhancer-bearing genes and determining by EM the frequency ...
متن کاملProfilin is associated with transcriptionally active genes
We have raised antibodies against the profilin of Chironomus tentans to study the location of profilin relative to chromatin and to active genes in salivary gland polytene chromosomes. We show that a fraction of profilin is located in the nucleus, where profilin is highly concentrated in the nucleoplasm and at the nuclear periphery. Moreover, profilin is associated with multiple bands in the po...
متن کاملBudding Yeast Rif1 Controls Genome Integrity by Inhibiting rDNA Replication
The Rif1 protein is a negative regulator of DNA replication initiation in eukaryotes. Here we show that budding yeast Rif1 inhibits DNA replication initiation at the rDNA locus. Absence of Rif1, or disruption of its interaction with PP1/Glc7 phosphatase, leads to more intensive rDNA replication. The effect of Rif1-Glc7 on rDNA replication is similar to that of the Sir2 deacetylase, and the two ...
متن کاملStructure of transcriptionally active chromatin.
Rat-liver chromatin has bee fractionated into transcriptionally active and inactive regions [Gottesfeld et al. (1974) Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 71, 2193-2197] and the distribution of nuclease-resistant complexes in these fractions has been investigated. About half of the DNA of both fractions is resistant to attack by tne endonuclease DNase II. The nuclease-resistant structures of inactive chro...
متن کاملNRP2 transcriptionally regulates its downstream effector WDFY1
Neuropilins (NRPs) are cell surface glycoproteins that often act as co-receptors for plexins and VEGF family receptors. Neuropilin-2 (NRP2), a family member of NRPs, was shown to regulate autophagy and endocytic trafficking in cancer cells, a function distinctly different from its role as a co-receptor. WD Repeat and FYVE domain containing 1 (WDFY1)-protein acts downstream of NRP2 for this func...
