Transcription: Base J Blocks the Way
نویسندگان
چکیده
How do cells stop transcribing RNA Polymerase II to promote proper gene expression and prevent transcriptional havoc in the genome? In the case of Leishmania, a uniquely modified DNA base blocks RNA Polymerase II and suggests an interesting new model for transcription termination.

On the possible volume of $mu$-$(v,k,t)$ trades
A $mu$-way $(v,k,t)$ $trade$ of volume $m$ consists of $mu$ disjoint collections $T_1$, $T_2, dots T_{mu}$, each of $m$ blocks, such that for every $t$-subset of $v$-set $V$ the number of blocks containing this t-subset is the same in each $T_i (1leq i leq mu)$. In other words any pair of collections ${T_i,T_j}$, $1leq i< j leq mu$ is a $(v,k,t)$ trade of volume $m$. In th...
متن کاملStability analysis of block-flexural toppling of rock blocks with round edges
One of the most conventional toppling instabilities is the block-flexural toppling failure that occurs in civil and mining engineering projects. In this kind of failure, some rock columns are broken due to tensile bending stresses, and the others are overturned due to their weights, and finally, all of the blocks topple together. A specific feature of spheroidal weathering is the rounding of th...

Statement of Problem:The surface topography of denture base material is an important factor for the adhesion of Candida albicans and other microorganisms.Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the adherence of Candida albicans to four types of denture base materials (Acropars acrylic resin, Meliodent acrylic resin, rough and smooth surfaces of Molloplast B).Materials and Methods: Seven ...
متن کاملTranscription of a silkworm tRNA(cAla) gene is directed by two AT-rich upstream sequence elements.
A region within 35 nucleotides upstream of the transcription initiation site of a variety of silkworm Class III templates is absolutely required for transcription in vitro. To determine whether the activity of this region can be attributed to a particular sequence element, we systematically replaced 4-5 bp segments of the region upstream of a silkworm tRNA(cAla) gene. We show that replacement o...
متن کاملIn vivo transcription of a progesterone-responsive gene is specifically inhibited by a triplex-forming oligonucleotide.
Oligonucleotides provide novel reagents for inhibition of gene expression because of their high affinity binding to specific nucleotide sequences. We describe a 38 base, single-stranded DNA that forms a triple helix or 'triplex' on progesterone response elements of a target gene. This triplex-forming oligonucleotide binds with a Kd = 100 nM at 37 degrees C and physiological pH, and blocks bindi...
