LncRNAs: New Players in Apoptosis Control
The discovery that the mammalian genome is largely transcribed and that almost half of the polyadenylated RNAs is composed of noncoding RNAs has attracted the attention of the scientific community. Growing amount of data suggests that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a new class of regulators involved not only in physiological processes, such as imprinting and differentiation, but also in canc...
متن کاملRetrotransposon-Derived Promoter of Mammalian Aebp2
Variable DNA methylation in promoter regions has been implicated in altering transcriptional regulation. The current study analyzed the evolutionary origin and DNA methylation pattern of one of the promoters of Aebp2. According to the results, the first promoter of Aebp2 has been derived from retrotransposons independently in the primate and rodent lineages. DNA methylation analyses revealed th...
متن کاملEstrogens Receptors-New Players in Spermatogenesis
The mammalian testis is a complex organ that serves two important functions, synthesis of steroids, with significant amount of estrogenic hormones produced and production of spermatozoa. Estrogen receptors (ERs) are expressed in cells of the testis as well as the epididymal epithelium. We have demonstrated that estrogen receptor expression is higher in reproductive tissues as compared to non-re...
متن کاملDivision plane control in plants: new players in the band.
Unique mechanisms are used to orient cell division planes in plants. A cortical ring of cytoskeletal filaments called the preprophase band (PPB) predicts the future division plane during G2 and is disassembled as the mitotic spindle forms, leaving behind a 'cortical division site' (CDS) that guides the placement of the new cell wall (cell plate) during cytokinesis. The molecular features of the...
متن کاملA New Exon Derived from a Mammalian Apparent LTR Retrotransposon of the SUPT16H Gene
The SUPT16H gene known as FACTP140 is required for the transcription of other genes. For transcription, genes need to be complexed with accessory factors, including transcription factors and RNA polymerase II. One such factor, FACT, interacts with histones H2A/H2B for nucleosome disassembly and transcription elongation. The SUPT16H gene has a transcript and many expressed sequence tags (ESTs). ...
