Specific cellular proteins bind to critical promoter sequences of the adenovirus early EIIa promoter.
As an approach to the identification of essential factors required for specific expression of the adenovirus type 2 EIIaE early (EIIaE) promoter, an in vitro system was established. Under appropriate conditions, using crude extracts of non-infected HeLa cells, efficient and accurate EIIaE expression has been reproduced. As in vivo, this transcription was strongly dependent upon the integrity of...
متن کاملMultiple nuclear factors interact with promoter sequences of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator gene.
To characterize proteins that bind to the cyclic AMP inducible promoter of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator gene, we performed a DNAase I footprinting analysis. Within 500 nucleotides upstream of the transcription start site we found eight protected regions due to at least four different binding proteins. Among these is a single binding site for the transcription factor CTF/NF1, which i...
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 کاملTwo Steps Methylation Specific PCR for Assessment of APC Promoter Methylation in Gastric Adenocarcinoma
Gastric Cancer (GC) is the second most common cancer in the world and a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Methylation of promoter CpG islands (CGIs) belonging to tumor suppressor genes causes transcriptional silencing of their corresponding genes leading to carcinogenesis and other disorders. Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) a tumor suppressor gene is inactivated by methylation of prom...
متن کاملIdentification of rat ovarian nuclear factors that interact with the cAMP-inducible lactate dehydrogenase A subunit promoter.
Utilizing the gel electrophoresis/DNA binding assay and a new technique of direct binding of radioactive DNA to protein blots, we have investigated putative factors selective for the cAMP-responsive element (CRE) of the lactate dehydrogenase A subunit promoter in rat ovary nuclear extracts. Analysis of linker-scanning mutants of lactate dehydrogenase A subunit promoter fragments by DNA binding ...
