The Coevolution of Insect Muscle TpnT and TpnI Gene Isoforms [PDF]
In bilaterians, the main regulator of muscle contraction is the troponin (Tpn) complex, comprising three closely interacting subunits (C, T, and I). To understand how evolutionary forces drive molecular change in protein complexes, we have compared the gene structures and expression patterns of Tpn genes in insects. In this class, while TpnC is encoded

Integrating large-scale functional genomic data has significantly accelerated our understanding of gene functions. However, no algorithm has been developed to differentiate functions for isoforms of the same gene using high-throughput genomic data.

Global isoform-specific transcript alterations and deregulated networks in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. [PDF]
Extensive genome-wide analyses of deregulated gene expression have now been performed for many types of cancer. However, most studies have focused on deregulation at the gene-level, which may overlook the alterations of specific transcripts for a given ...

Promoter elements play important roles in isoform and cell type-specific expression. We surveyed the epigenomic promoter landscape of gastric adenocarcinoma, analyzing 110 chromatin profiles (H3K4me3, H3K4me1, H3K27ac) of primary gastric cancers, gastric

Novel Chicken Actin Gene: Third Cytoplasmic Isoform [PDF]
We identified a novel chicken actin gene. The actin protein deduced from its nucleotide sequence very closely resembles the vertebrate cytoplasmic actins; accordingly, we classified this gene as a nonmuscle type. We adopted the convention for indicating the nonmuscle actins of the class Amphibia (Vandekerckhove et al., J. Mol. Biol.

One-two punch mechanism of gene repression: a fresh perspective on gene regulation. [PDF]
Cellular differentiation depends on temporally controlled waves of gene activation and inactivation that ultimately transform one cell type into another.

Alternative polyadenylation (APA), including APA that occurs only in the 3′ UTR (3′ UTR-APA), is an important post-transcriptional regulatory mechanism that leads to distinct 3′ UTRs for some genes, increasing the complexity of the transcriptome.

Isoform cell-type specificity in the mouse primary motor cortex
Full-length SMART-seq1 single-cell RNA sequencing can be used to measure gene expression at isoform resolution, making possible the identification of specific isoform markers for different cell types. Used in conjunction with spatial RNA capture and gene-

A novel human glucocorticoid receptor SNP results in increased transactivation potential. [PDF]
Glucocorticoids are one of the most widely used therapeutics in the treatment of a variety of inflammatory disorders. However, it is known that there are variable patient responses to glucocorticoid treatment; there are responders and non-responders, or ...

BackgroundThe Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that causes microcephaly and Guillain-Barré syndrome in infected individuals. To obtain insights into the mechanism of ZIKV infection and pathogenesis, we analyzed the transcriptome of ZIKV ...
