Tissue-specific inactivation of p53 tumor suppression in the mouse.
The p53 gene is the most frequent target of structural and functional genetic mutations in human cancer. Thus, considerable effort has been devoted to mapping the functional domains of p53 with regard to their impact on tumorigenesis in vivo. Studies have shown that the carboxy-terminal domain of p53 is sufficient for transformation in vitro. To determine whether a transdominant-negative p53 pr...
متن کاملTissue specific expression of alternatively spliced murine PECAM-1 isoforms.
PECAM-1 (CD31) is a cell adhesion molecule that is highly expressed at the sites of endothelial cell-cell contact and at lower levels on the surface of platelets and leukocytes. It is a member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily and undergoes alternative splicing to generate several isoforms that differ only in their cytoplasmic domains. The tissue distribution of the expression of different...
متن کاملTissue Specific Expression of Human Calcitonin Gene in Potato Tubers by an Organ Specific Promoter
To increase the production level of heterologous proteins in plants, strategies such as choice of strongerpromoters, optimization of codon usage and specific localization of foreign proteins are of major concern.Calcitonin (CT), a 32 amino acid polypeptide is a powerful and specific inhibitor of bone resorption and isused to treat several human diseases. Calcitonin activity is...
متن کاملSequence instability and functional inactivation of murine Y chromosomes can occur on a specific genetic background.
When the Y chromosome from Mus. poschiavinus (YPos) is backcrossed onto the C57BL/6J laboratory strain, testicular dysfunction occurs at high frequencies. When five different multicopy probes from the recombinationally suppressed region of the Y chromosome were used, genomic DNAs from sibling female progeny of C57BL/6J YPos males were found to contain YPos-specific sequences ranging from trace ...
متن کاملAdipose tissue-specific inactivation of the retinoblastoma protein protects against diabesity because of increased energy expenditure.
The role of the tumor suppressor retinoblastoma protein (pRb) has been firmly established in the control of cell cycle, apoptosis, and differentiation. Recently, it was demonstrated that lack of pRb promotes a switch from white to brown adipocyte differentiation in vitro. We used the Cre-Lox system to specifically inactivate pRb in adult adipose tissue. Under a high-fat diet, pRb-deficient (pRb...
