The metabolic enzyme AdhE controls the virulence of Escherichia coli O157:H7 [PDF]
Classical studies have focused on the role that individual regulators play in controlling virulence gene expression. An emerging theme, however, is that bacterial metabolism also plays a key role in this process.

Organization, Transcription, and Regulation in the Animal Genome [PDF]
This review concern recent experimental information areas of animal cell molecular biology which are relevant to the mechanism of gene regulation. New data regarding interspersion and clustering of repetitive sequence elements in DNA are considered ...

Molecular Self-Titration as a Mechanism of Gene Regulation [PDF]
In systems biology, molecular titration is a mechanism for introducing sensitivity of genetic networks to their regulatory proteins. Since most eukaryotic transcription factors lack chemical control by low-molecular-weight hormones or metabolites, transcription factors have evolved various strategies, such as cooperative DNA binding and sequestering ...

Molecular architecture of human polycomb repressive complex 2. [PDF]
Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is essential for gene silencing, establishing transcriptional repression of specific genes by tri-methylating Lysine 27 of histone H3, a process mediated by cofactors such as AEBP2.

Aging as a consequence of misrepair -- A novel theory of aging [PDF]
It is now increasingly realized that the underlying mechanisms which govern aging is a complex interplay of genetic regulation and damage accumulation. Aging as a result of accumulation of ‘faults’ on cellular and molecular levels, has been

Epigenetic and transcriptional regulation of CCL17 production by glucocorticoids in arthritis
Summary: Glucocorticoids (GCs) are potent anti-inflammatory agents and are broadly used in treating rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, albeit with adverse side effects associated with long-term usage.

Gene body methylation in cancer: molecular mechanisms and clinical applications
DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism that regulates gene expression. To date, most DNA methylation studies have focussed on CpG islands in the gene promoter region, and the mechanism of methylation and the regulation of gene expression ...

Summary: Suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS1) exerts control over inflammation by targeting p65 nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) for degradation in addition to its canonical role regulating cytokine signaling. We report here that SOCS1 does not operate on

Molecular medicine of microRNAs: structure, function and implications for diabetes [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of endogenous small noncoding RNA molecules, of 19–28 nucleotides in length. In humans, up to 3% of all genes are estimated to encode these evolutionarily conserved sequences.
