Molecular cloning, sequencing, and mapping of EGR2, a human early growth response gene encoding a protein with "zinc-binding finger" structure.
Early growth response gene-1 (Egr-1) is a mouse gene displaying fos-like induction kinetics in diverse cell types following mitogenic stimulation. Egr-1 encodes a protein with "zinc-binding finger" structure. Zinc fingers are a protein structural motif that serve as DNA-binding domains in several transcriptional regulatory proteins. Using low-stringency hybridization with an Egr-1 cDNA probe, w...
متن کاملFunctional activation of the egr-1 (early growth response-1) gene by hydrogen peroxide.
The redox-based regulation of gene expression is one of the fundamental mechanisms of cellular functions, and hydrogen peroxide seems to act as an intracellular second messenger of signal transduction of cytokines. Hydrogen peroxide at non-toxic doses induced the accumulation of mRNA for the early growth response-1 (egr-1) gene in mouse osteoblastic cells. The Egr-1 protein is a transcription f...
متن کاملUpregulation of transcription factors in lung in the early phase of postpneumonectomy lung growth.
In the adult rodent, pneumonectomy results in compensatory lung growth characterized by cell proliferation. The molecular mechanisms governing this response remain unknown. We hypothesized that, in the early period postpneumonectomy, upregulated expression of transcription factors drives the growth process. We utilized a cDNA expression array to screen for upregulated transcription factors afte...
متن کاملRegulation of radiation-induced apoptosis by early growth response-1 gene in solid tumors.
Ionizing radiation exposure is associated with activation of certain immediate-early genes that function as transcription factors. These include members of jun or fos and early growth response (EGR) gene families. In particular, the functional role of EGR-1 in radiation-induced signaling is pivotal since the promoter of EGR-1 contains radiation inducible CArG DNA sequences. The Egr-1 gene belon...
متن کاملDecreased c-Abl activity in PC-3 and LNCaP prostate cancer cells overexpressing the early growth response-1 protein.
Early growth response-1 (Egr-1) and the non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase (c-Abl) are 2 response genes that can act as regulators of cell growth and apoptosis in response to stress. Both Egr-1 and c-Abl regulate cell proliferation and survival in different types of cancer cells. To study the effect of overexpression of EGR-1 on the activity of c-Abl in prostate cancer cells, human PC-3 and L...
