Expression of the plasma prekallikrein gene: utilization of multiple transcription start sites and alternative promoter regions [PDF]
The plasma prekallikrein gene is expressed in many different human tissues at distinctly different levels and therefore tissue-specific control of the gene transcription is likely.

A dynamical model reveals gene co-localizations in nucleus [PDF]
Co-localization of networks of genes in the nucleus is thought to play an important role in determining gene expression patterns. Based upon experimental data, we built a dynamical model to test whether pure diffusion could account for the observed co ...

Identification and validation of transcription factors that regulate chromatin dynamics [PDF]
Gene expression has to be tightly regulated during all cellular processes. During embryonic development differentiating cells loose their developmental potential and acquire specific functions by activating lineage-specific genes.

The Nuclear Lamina as an Organizer of Chromosome Architecture
The nuclear lamina (NL) is a meshwork of lamins and lamin-associated proteins adjoining the inner side of the nuclear envelope. In early embryonic cells, the NL mainly suppresses background transcription, whereas, in differentiated cell types, its ...

Methylation hallmarks on the histone tail as a linker of osmotic stress and gene transcription
Plants dynamically manipulate their gene expression in acclimation to the challenging environment. Hereinto, the histone methylation tunes the gene transcription via modulation of the chromatin accessibility to transcription machinery.

Statistical reconstruction of transcription factor activity using Michaelis-Menten kinetics [PDF]
Summary. The basic building block of a gene regulatory network consists of a gene encoding a transcription factor (TF) and the gene(s) it regulates. Considerable efforts have been directed recently at devising experiments and algorithms to determine TFs

A Novel Strategy for Regulating mRNA’s Degradation via Interfering the AUF1’s Binding to mRNA
The study on the mechanism and kinetics of mRNA degradation provides a new vision for chemical intervention on protein expression. The AU enrichment element (ARE) in mRNA 3′-UTR can be recognized and bound by the ARE binding protein (AU-rich Element ...
