Variations in the phosphate content of histone F1 in normal and irradiated tissues.
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. The capacity of the histone-DNA complex to act as a template for RNA synthesis is increased by phosphorylation of histone F1. 2. In regenerating liver, DNA synthesis is preceded by phosphorylation of histone F1. 3. Exposure to ionizing radiation in vivo decreases and delays the phosphorylation of histone F1 in regenerating liver, and decreases it in the hyperplastic kidney. 4. Histone F1 is phosphorylated to a greater extent in dividing than in resting tissues.

γ-H2AX as a protein biomarker for radiation exposure response in ductal carcinoma breast tumors: Experimental evidence and literature review
Background: H2AX is a histone variant that is systematically found and ubiquitously distributed throughout the genome. DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) induce phosphorylation of H2AX at serine 139 (γH2AX), an immunocytochemical assay with antibodies recognizing γH2AX has become the gold standard for the detection of DSBs. The importance of this assay to investigate different individu...
متن کاملHistone kinase and cell division.
1. The activity of the soluble phosphokinase for histone F1 increases in regenerating rat liver during the first period of DNA synthesis after partial hepatectomy. The increase probably represents new enzyme synthesis. 2. A dose of 500rd of gamma-irradiation given early in G1 decreases the amount of histone F1 phosphokinase found 22h after partial hepatectomy by 60-70%. 3. The enzyme preparatio...
متن کاملModulation of radiation induced changes in nucleic acid content of liver of Swiss albino mouse by Tinospora cordifolia (Miers)
Background: Radiotherapy is the main modality of cancer treatment. There are many chemical radioprotectors which unfortunately have lethal or toxic effect. Therefore the search is on to find out natural plant based radioprotectors. A well known medicinal plant,which is more acceptable to the body, Tinospora cordifolia, was tested in animal tissues against gamma radiations. Radioprotectiv...
متن کاملP-202: Reduced Expression of JMJD1A Histone Demethylase Gene in Testis Tissues of Infertile Men Referred to Royan Institute
Background: Epigenetic modifications are involved in different cellular processes through regulating chromatin dynamics. histone methylation is an important modification that can be dynamically regulated by histone methyltransferase and histone demethylase enzymes. JMJD1A (also known as JHDM2A and KDM3A) is a histone demethylase specific for H3K9me2/me1. JMJD1A is a key epigenetic regulator tha...

The effects of chronic metabolic acidosis, alkalosis and alloxan-induced ketoacidosis on G6PD activity of rat kidney, liver and erythrocytes were studied. Metabolic acidosis significantly increased the activity of kidney enzyme (55%) but decreased the liver (43%) and erythrocyte (38%) enzyme activities. Alkalosis did not make a significant change in the kidney or liver enzyme activity but ...
