The mouse genome contains two nonallelic pro-opiomelanocortin genes.
In the anterior pituitary pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) is the protein precursor to both adrenocorticotropin and beta-lipotropin but in the intermediate pituitary POMC serves as the precursor to alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone and beta-endorphin. In addition, POMC expression in the anterior pituitary is inhibited by glucocorticoids but stimulated by corticotropin-releasing factor while POMC ...
متن کاملThe chicken genome contains two functional nonallelic beta1,4-galactosyltransferase genes. Chromosomal assignment to syntenic regions tracks fate of the two gene lineages in the human genome.
Two distinct but related groups of cDNA clones, CKbeta4GT-I and CKbeta4GT-II, have been isolated by screening a chicken hepatoma cDNA library with a bovine beta1,4-galactosyltransferase (beta4GT) cDNA clone. CKbeta4GT-I is predicted to encode a type II transmembrane glycoprotein of 41 kDa with one consensus site for N-linked glycosylation. CKbeta4GT-II is predicted to encode a type II transmemb...
متن کاملThe tetracycline-responsive promoter contains functional interferon-inducible response elements.
Tetracycline (tet)-responsive expression vectors allow controlled inducible expression of proteins in mammalian cells. This system is widely used for experimental research both in vivo and in vitro. In our attempts to use this system to study the antiviral effect of IFNalpha on hepatitis B virus, we discovered an unexpected feature of the tet-responsive promoter (tet promoter) of the currently ...
متن کاملThe smallest genome RNA segment of influenza virus contains two genes that may overlap.
The genome of influenza virus consists of eight segments of single-stranded RNA, each of which encodes a different polypeptide. In addition to the eight recognized gene products, the virus specifies a distinct smaller nonstructural polypeptide (NS2), which is translated from a separate species of virus-specific mRNA. The location on the virus genome of the gene encoding this polypeptide was inv...
متن کاملTwo Dynamin-2 Genes Are Required for Normal Zebrafish Development
Dynamin-2 (DNM2) is a large GTPase involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and related trafficking pathways. Mutations in human DNM2 cause two distinct neuromuscular disorders: centronuclear myopathy and Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. Zebrafish have been shown to be an excellent animal model for many neurologic disorders, and this system has the potential to inform our understanding of DNM2-rel...
