Transcription of Schizosaccharomyces pombe thioltransferase-1 in response to stress conditions.
Thioltransferase, also known as glutaredoxin, is an enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of a variety of disulfide compounds. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, two thioltransferases were reported and the cDNA of one of the thioltransferases (thioltransferase-1) was cloned. Using a Northern blot assay, we investigated the thioltransferase transcription in response to various stress conditions. When t...
متن کاملTfg3, a subunit of the general transcription factor TFIIF in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, functions under stress conditions.
TFIIF is a general transcription factor (GTF) that binds to RNA polymerase II (pol II) for subsequent recruitment of pol II to a promoter. TFIIF of Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains a small subunit, designated Tfg3, in addition to two conserved subunits, TFIIFalpha (Tfg1) and TFIIFbeta (Tfg2). In this study, we characterized Tfg3 of Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Using Tfg3 fused to green fluoresce...
متن کاملMonitoring Response of a Few bZip Transcription Factors in Response to Osmotic Stress in Sunflower
Background: Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is one of the important vegetable oil supplies in the world and in Iran, as well. It is classified as a drought semi-tolerant crop; however, its yield is adversely affected by drought stress. Understanding the initial events in sensing stress and the related physiologic and biochemical events thereafter, is crucial in designing droug...
متن کاملSchizosaccharomyces pombe mutants affected in their division response to starvation.
Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants have been selected on the basis of an altered response to nutritional stimulation of cell division (changed division response, cdr). Two new loci (cdr1 and cdr2) were identified and characterized. When suspended in nitrogen-free medium wild-type cells underwent stimulated rates of division and became reduced to approximately 30% in protein content with a concom...
متن کاملAdaptive response of Schizosaccharomyces pombe to hydrogen peroxide and menadione.
The response of Schizosaccharomyces pombe to oxidative stresses has been examined. On challenging Schiz. pombe for 60 min at early exponential phase with either 40 mM H2O2 or 6 mM menadione (MD), a superoxide-generating agent, less than 10% of the cells survived. Pretreating Schiz. pombe cells with 0.2 mM H2O2 or 0.2 mM MD for 1 h significantly increased survival of these lethal doses of each o...
