The protein encoded by the human proto-oncogene c-myc. [PDF]
The proto-oncogene c-myc may play a role in controlling the growth and division of normal cells, and abnormalities of the gene have been implicated in the genesis of a substantial variety of human tumors. To facilitate further study of these issues, we developed antisera that permit the identification and isolation of the protein encoded by the human ...

Hinge like domain motion facilitates human RBMS1 protein binding to proto-oncogene c-myc promoter [PDF]
Abstract DNA binding proteins recognize DNA specifically or non-specifically using direct and indirect readout mechanisms like sliding, hopping, and diffusion. However, a common difficulty in explicitly elucidating any particular mechanism of site-specific DNA-protein recognition is the lack of knowledge regarding target sequences and ...

Transcriptional activation of c-myc proto-oncogene by WT1 protein [PDF]
The Wilms' tumor 1 gene (WT1) plays an essential role in urogenital development and malignancy. Through DNA binding, WT1 can either enhance or repress transcription depending on the context of the DNA-binding sites or the cell type in which it is expressed.

MYC regulates metabolism through vesicular transfer of glycolytic kinases
Amplification of the proto-oncogene MYCN is a key molecular aberration in high-risk neuroblastoma and predictive of poor outcome in this childhood malignancy. We investigated the role of MYCN in regulating the protein cargo of extracellular vesicles (EVs)

c-Myc is essential to prevent endothelial pro-inflammatory senescent phenotype. [PDF]
The proto-oncogene c-Myc is vital for vascular development and promotes tumor angiogenesis, but the mechanisms by which it controls blood vessel growth remain unclear. In the present work we investigated the effects of c-Myc knockdown in endothelial cell

The parafibromin tumor suppressor protein inhibits cell proliferation by repression of the c-myc proto-oncogene [PDF]
Parafibromin is a tumor suppressor protein encoded by HRPT2 , a gene recently implicated in the hereditary hyperparathyroidism–jaw tumor syndrome, parathyroid cancer, and a subset of kindreds with familial isolated hyperparathyroidism.

High Intrinsic Oncogenic Potential in the Myc-Box-Deficient Hydra Myc3 Protein
The proto-oncogene myc has been intensively studied primarily in vertebrate cell culture systems. Myc transcription factors control fundamental cellular processes such as cell proliferation, cell cycle control and stem cell maintenance.

Manipulation of the host cell is a crucial part of life for many intracellular organisms. We have recently come to appreciate the extent to which the intracellular pathogen Toxoplasma gondii reprograms its host cell, and this is illustrated by the marked

Integration of genome and chromatin structure with gene expression profiles to predict c-MYC recognition site binding and function. [PDF]
The MYC genes encode nuclear sequence specific-binding DNA-binding proteins that are pleiotropic regulators of cellular function, and the c-MYC proto-oncogene is deregulated and/or mutated in most human cancers. Experimental studies of MYC binding to the
