چکیده

Interactions among transcription factors control their physiological functions by regulating their binding specificities and transcriptional activities.We implement a strategy tovisualize directly the genomic loci that are bound bymulti-protein complexes in single cells inDrosophila. This method is based on bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) analysis of protein interactions on polytene chromosomes. Drosophila Keap1 (dKeap1)-CncC complexes localized to the nucleus and bound chromatin loci that were not bound preferentially by dKeap1 or CncC when they were expressed separately. dKeap1 and CncC binding at these loci was enhanced by phenobarbital, but not by tert-butylhydroquinone (tBHQ) or paraquat. Endogenous dKeap1 and CncC activated transcription of the Jheh (Jheh1, Jheh2, Jheh3) and dKeap1 genes at these loci, whereas CncC alone activated other xenobiotic response genes. Ectopic dKeap1 expression increased CncC binding at the Jheh and dKeap1 gene loci and activated their transcription, whereas dKeap1 inhibited CncC binding at other xenobiotic response gene loci and suppressed their transcription. The combinatorial chromatin-binding specificities and transcriptional activities of dKeap1-CncC complexesmediated the selective activation of different sets of genes by different xenobiotic compounds, in part through feed-forward activation of dKeap1 transcription.

Differential pro-apoptotic effects of synthetic 4-thiazolidinone derivative Les-3288, doxorubicin and temozolomide in human glioma U251 cells

AIM To compare various pro-apoptotic effects of synthetic 4-thiazolidinone derivative (Les-3288), doxorubicin (Dox) and temozolomide (TMZ) in the treatment of human glioma U251 cells to improve treatment outcomes of glioblastoma and avoid anticancer drug resistance. METHODS The cytotoxic effects of drugs used in human glioma U251 cells were measured by cell viability and proliferation assay (...

Draft genome sequence of Bacillus azotoformans MEV2011, a (Co-) denitrifying strain unable to grow with oxygen

Bacillus azotoformans MEV2011, isolated from soil, is a microaerotolerant obligate denitrifier, which can also produce N2 by co-denitrification. Oxygen is consumed but not growth-supportive. The draft genome has a size of 4.7 Mb and contains key genes for both denitrification and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium.

High quality draft genome of Lactobacillus kunkeei EFB6, isolated from a German European foulbrood outbreak of honeybees

The lactic acid bacterium Lactobacillus kunkeei has been described as an inhabitant of fructose-rich niches. Here we report on the genome sequence of L. kunkeei EFB6, which has been isolated from a honeybee larva infected with European foulbrood. The draft genome comprises 1,566,851 bp and 1,417 predicted protein-encoding genes.
