Employing the transgenic BALB-neuT mouse tumor model, we explored the in vivo biologic relevance of immunocompetent epitopes shared among the four ErbB receptors. The outcome of neu-mediated tumorigenesis was compared following vaccination with isogeneic normal rat ErbB2/Neu (LTR-Neu) or xenogeneic human ErbB receptors (LTR-EGFR, LTR-ErbB2, LTR-ErbB3 and LTR-ErbB4), each recombinantly expressed...
Mitochondria become targets for autophagic degradation after nutrient deprivation, a process also termed mitophagy. In this study, we used LysoTracker Red (LTR) and MitoTracker Green to characterize the kinetics of autophagosomal proliferation and mitophagy in cultured rat hepatocytes. Autophagy induced by nutrient deprivation plus glucagon increased LTR uptake assessed with a fluorescence plat...
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) and human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) infection stimulated HIV-1 replication and trans-activated the HIV-1 promoter (the long terminal repeat or LTR) to a similar extent in transfected, nonimmortalized, human fetal astrocytes. CMV infection increased basal LTR expression by approximately sevenfold, while HHV-6 infection increased basal LTR expression by fourfold. This enhancing ...
LTR retrotransposons may be important contributors to host gene evolution because they contain regulatory and coding signals. In an effort to assess the possible contribution of LTR retrotransposons to C. elegans gene evolution, we searched upstream and downstream of LTR retrotransposon sequences for the presence of predicted genes. Sixty-three percent of LTR retrotransposon sequences (79/124) ...
The long terminal repeat (LTR) of Rauscher murine leukaemia virus (MuLV) has been sequenced. It differs in only three positions from the LTR of Rauscher spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV), and in four positions from the LTR of Rauscher mink cell focus-inducing virus (MCFV). It is unlikely that these differences account for differences in leukaemogenicity or tissue tropism of Rauscher MuLV, SFFV ...
Exploration of images after stimulus onset is initially biased to the left. Here, we studied the causes of such an asymmetry and investigated effects of reading habits, text primes, and priming by systematically biased eye movements on this spatial bias in visual exploration. Bilinguals first read text primes with right-to-left (RTL) or left-to-right (LTR) reading directions and subsequently ex...
We have conducted a phylogenetic analysis of the Ribonuclease HI (RNH) domains present in Eubacteria, Eukarya, all long-term repeat (LTR)-bearing retrotransposons, and several late-branching clades of non-LTR retrotransposons. Analysis of this simple yet highly conserved enzymatic domain from these disparate sources provides surprising insights into the evolution of eukaryotic retrotransposons....
Plant genomes contain numerous transposable elements (TEs), and many hypotheses on the evolutionary drivers that restrict TE activity have been postulated. Few models, however, have focused on the evolutionary epigenomic interaction between the plant host and its TE. The host genome recruits epigenetic factors, such as methylation, to silence TEs but methylation can spread beyond the TE sequenc...
Computational methods for genome-wide identification of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) have become increasingly necessary for both genome annotation and evolutionary studies. Non-long terminal repeat (non-LTR) retrotransposons are a class of MGEs that have been found in most eukaryotic genomes, sometimes in extremely high numbers. In this article, we present a computational tool, MGEScan-non-LT...
Transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) can be achieved by small RNAs targeted to upstream promoter regions. Previously we characterized siRNAs targeted to the HIV-1 long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter at site 247, and found that a 21-base antisense strand of siRNA-247 (LTR-247as) suppressed LTR-mediated expression. To characterize the specificity of LTR-247as, vectors expressing antisense RNAs ta...
