The neural crest‐associated gene ERRFI1 is involved in melanoma progression and resistance toward targeted therapy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
ERRFI1, a neural crest (NC)‐associated gene, was upregulated in melanoma and negatively correlated with the expression of melanocytic differentiation markers and the susceptibility of melanoma cells toward BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi). Knocking down ERRFI1 significantly increased the sensitivity of melanoma cells to BRAFi.

Survivin and Aurora Kinase A control cell fate decisions during mitosis

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aurora A interacts with survivin during mitosis and regulates its centromeric role. Loss of Aurora A activity mislocalises survivin, the CPC and BubR1, leading to disruption of the spindle checkpoint and triggering premature mitotic exit, which we refer to as ‘mitotic slippage’.

CDK11 inhibition induces cytoplasmic p21WAF1 splice variant by p53 stabilisation and SF3B1 inactivation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
CDK11 inhibition stabilises the tumour suppressor p53 and triggers the production of an alternative p21WAF1 splice variant p21L, through the inactivation of the spliceosomal protein SF3B1. Unlike the canonical p21WAF1 protein, p21L is localised in the cytoplasm and has reduced cell cycle‐blocking activity.

Approaches for gene targeting and targeted gene expression in plants [PDF]

GM Crops, 2011
Transgenic science and technology are fundamental to state-of-the-art plant molecular genetics and crop improvement. The new generation of technology endeavors to introduce genes 'stably' into 'site-specific' locations and in 'single copy' without the integration of extraneous vector 'backbone' sequences or selectable markers and with a 'predictable ...

Gene targeting in Arabidopsis [PDF]

The Plant Journal, 2001
SummaryPrecise modification by gene targeting (GT) provides an important tool for studies of gene function in vivo. Although routine with many organisms, only isolated examples of GT events have been reported for flowering plants. These were at low frequencies precluding reliable estimation of targeting efficiency and evaluation of GT mechanisms.

Gene Targeting in Neuroendocrinology

Comprehensive Physiology, 2015
ABSTRACTResearch in neuroendocrinology faces particular challenges due to the complex interactions between cells in the hypothalamus, in the pituitary gland and in peripheral tissues. Within the hypothalamus alone, attempting to target a specific neuronal cell type can be problematic due to the heterogeneous nature and level of cellular diversity of ...

Targeted gene therapy

British Medical Bulletin, 1995
Melanin biosynthesis is limited to melanocytes partly as a consequence of transcriptional regulation of the enzymes involved in this pathway. Promoter sequences of these enzyme genes may be utilised to drive expression of complementary DNA coding for therapeutic genes so as to provide transcriptional targeting. We have used the 5'-flanking sequences of

Gene-Targeting Vectors

2009
Gene targeting in mice has been used extensively to elucidate gene function in vivo. However, for gene targeting to be successful, the targeting vector must be carefully designed. This chapter addresses the rationale behind designing targeting vectors, detailing the essential components, and highlighting specific considerations for different types of ...

Myc target genes

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 1997
The myc family of proto-oncogenes belongs to the basic helix-loop-helix leucine-zipper (bHLHZ) class of transcription factors. Myc proteins function as transcriptional activators through heterodimerization with Max, but might also act as negative regulators of transcription.

Gene Targeting in the Mouse

2011
Establishment of methods to inactivate genes by homologous recombination in embryonic stem (ES) cells has provided great advantages to the field of mouse genetics. Using this technology, a number of null mutant mice, so-called knock-out mice, have been generated.
