Epigenetic transgenerational actions of vinclozolin on promoter regions of the sperm epigenome.
Previous observations have demonstrated that embryonic exposure to the endocrine disruptor vinclozolin during gonadal sex determination promotes transgenerational adult onset disease such as male infertility, kidney disease, prostate disease, immune ...

Interaction between non-coding RNAs, mRNAs and G-quadruplexes
G-quadruplexes are secondary helical configurations established between guanine-rich nucleic acids. The structure is seen in the promoter regions of numerous genes under certain situations.

Isolation and characterization of strong gene regulatory sequences from apple, Malus x domestica [PDF]
For the strong expression of genes in plant tissue, the availability of specific gene regulatory sequences is desired. We cloned promoter and terminator sequences of an apple (Malus x domestica) ribulose biphosphate carboxylase small subunit gene (MdRbcS)

Construction and characterization of a synthetic Baculovirus-inducible 39K promoter
Background Silkworm genetic engineering is widely used in gene function, silk engineering and disease-resistant engineering in most of Asia. Some of the earliest promoter elements are used to control the development of silkworm transgenic expression and ...

DNA methylation at the mu-1 opioid receptor gene (OPRM1) promoter predicts preoperative, acute, and chronic postsurgical pain after spine fusion. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION:The perioperative pain experience shows great interindividual variability and is difficult to predict. The mu-1 opioid receptor gene (OPRM1) is known to play an important role in opioid-pain pathways.

Regulation of transcription by the Arabidopsis UVR8 photoreceptor involves a specific histone modification [PDF]
The photoreceptor UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8) specifically mediates photomorphogenic responses to UV-B wavelengths. UVR8 acts by regulating transcription of a set of genes, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Previous research indicated that UVR8

Genetic Alteration of p16INKA4A Promoter Region in Endometrial Carcinoma
Objective : This study was performed to evaluate the status of p16 tumor suppressor gene in 25 endometrial carcinomas (ECs) and to correlate the loss of heterozygosity (LOH) at p16 locus, the presence of inactivating mutations, the methylation status of the promotor, and the expression of p16 protein with clinicopathological parameters.
