The nucleolus: the magician's hat for cell cycle tricks.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The nucleolus, for decades considered a ribosome factory and site for ribosomal RNA synthesis and processing, has recently acquired new fame. Analyses of proteins important for cell-cycle regulation have shown that this organelle is used to sequester proteins, thereby inhibiting their activity.

NIR, an inhibitor of histone acetyltransferases, regulates transcription factor TAp63 and is controlled by the cell cycle
p63 Is a sequence-specific transcription factor that regulates epithelial stem cell maintenance and epithelial differentiation. In addition, the TAp63 isoform with an N-terminal transactivation domain functions as an inducer of apoptosis during the development of sympathetic neurons. Previous work has indicated that the co-activator and histone acetyltransferase (HAT), p300, can bind to TAp63 a...
متن کاملAn fMRI investigation of expectation violation in magic tricks
Magic tricks violate the expected causal relationships that form an implicit belief system about what is possible in the world around us. Observing a magic effect seemingly invalidates our implicit assumptions about what action causes which outcome. We aimed at identifying the neural correlates of such expectation violations by contrasting 24 video clips of magic tricks with 24 control clips in...
متن کاملDistinct roles for the essential MYST family HAT Esa1p in transcriptional silencing.
Among acetyltransferases, the MYST family enzyme Esa1p is distinguished for its essential function and contribution to transcriptional activation and DNA double-stranded break repair. Here we report that Esa1p also plays a key role in silencing RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-transcribed genes at telomeres and within the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) of the nucleolus. These effects are mediated through Esa1p...

متن کاملIt's a kind of magic—what self-reports can reveal about the phenomenology of insight problem solving
Magic tricks usually remain a mystery to the observer. For the sake of science, we offered participants the opportunity to discover the magician's secret method by repeatedly presenting the same trick and asking them to find out how the trick worked. In the context of insightful problem solving, the present work investigated the emotions that participants experience upon solving a magic trick. ...
