Transcriptional regulation of serum amyloid A gene expression.
Serum amyloid A (SAA) is a plasma apolipoprotein produced by the liver in response to inflammatory stimuli. The murine SAA gene family is made up of three genes, SAA1, SAA2, and SAA3, plus a pseudogene. The SAA1 and SAA2 genes are highly homologous while the SAA3 gene has diverged substantially from the other two genes. Using small fragments from the cloned genes, we have analyzed the expressio...
متن کاملPost-Transcriptional Regulation of Papillomavirus Gene Expression
Papillomavirus genomes are transcribed as one large complex transcription unit with multiple promoters, two poly(A) sites (early and late), and considerable alternative splicing. As a result, there are multiple opportunities for post-transcriptional regulation of papillomavirus gene expression. Although this area has not been as extensively studied as transcriptional regulation, there are a few...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of CFTR gene expression.
Cystic Fibrosis results from mutation of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. The gene was identified in 1989, but more than 20 years later, the regulatory mechanisms controlling its complex expression are still not fully understood. Though the promoter binds transcription factors and drives some aspects of CFTR gene expression, it cannot alone account for tissue...
متن کاملDynamic Post-Transcriptional Regulation of HIV-1 Gene Expression
Gene expression of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a highly regulated process. Basal transcription of the integrated provirus generates early transcripts that encode for the viral products Tat and Rev. Tat promotes the elongation of RNA polymerase while Rev mediates the nuclear export of viral RNAs that contain the Rev-responsive RNA element (RRE). These RNAs are exported fro...
متن کاملPost-Transcriptional Regulation of Gene Expression in Yersinia Species
Proper regulation of gene expression is required by bacterial pathogens to respond to continually changing environmental conditions and the host response during the infectious process. While transcriptional regulation is perhaps the most well understood form of controlling gene expression, recent studies have demonstrated the importance of post-transcriptional mechanisms of gene regulation that...
