Dbf4-dependent kinases (DDKs) are required for the initiation of DNA replication, their essential targets being the MCM2-7 proteins. We show that, in Xenopus laevis egg extracts and human cells, hyper-phosphorylation of DNA-bound Mcm4, but not ...

Metabolic regulation of chromatin modifications and gene expression
Dynamic regulation of gene expression in response to changing local conditions is critical for the survival of all organisms. In metazoans, coherent regulation of gene expression programs underlies the development of functionally distinct cell lineages ...

Genetic Variation in Human Gene Regulatory Factors Uncovers Regulatory Roles in Local Adaptation and Disease [PDF]
Differences in gene regulation have been suggested to play essential roles in the evolution of phenotypic changes. Although DNA changes in cis-regulatory elements affect only the regulation of its corresponding gene, variations in gene regulatory factors

CARM1-expressing ovarian cancer depends on the histone methyltransferase EZH2 activity
CARM1 is an arginine methyltransferase often overexpressed in human cancer. Here, the authors show that EZH2 inhibition suppresses growth in CARM1-expressing epithelial ovarian cancer, and examine the mechanism of how CARM1 promotes EZH2-mediated tumor ...

Although mammals possess roughly the same number of protein-coding genes as worms, it is evident that the non-coding transcriptome content has become far broader and more sophisticated during evolution.

Objective Pre‐existing neutralising antibodies (NAbs) to adeno‐associated viruses (AAVs) remain an impediment for systemically administered AAV‐mediated gene therapy treatment in many patients, and various strategies are under investigation to overcome ...

Investigation of the Basic Steps in the Chromosome Conformation Capture Procedure
A constellation of chromosome conformation capture methods (С-methods) are an important tool for biochemical analysis of the spatial interactions between DNA regions that are separated in the primary sequence.

Regulation of Gene Expression by Hypoxia [PDF]
The present study was undertaken to determine if gene expression for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), the rate limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of catecholamines, is regulated in the carotid body, sympathetic ganglia and adrenal medulla by hypoxia. We found that a reduction in oxygen tension from 21% to 10% caused a substantial increase (200% at 1 hour ...

Estrous behavior in dairy cows: identification of underlying mechanisms and gene functions [PDF]
Selection in dairy cattle for a higher milk yield has coincided with declined fertility. One of the factors is reduced expression of estrous behavior. Changes in systems that regulate the estrous behavior could be manifested by altered gene expression ...

RNA-containing extracellular vesicles in infection
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-bound particles released by cells that play vital roles in intercellular communication by transporting diverse biologically active molecules, including RNA molecules, including mRNA, miRNA, lncRNA, and other ...
