Antiproliferative protein Tob directly regulates c-myc proto-oncogene expression through cytoplasmic polyadenylation element-binding protein CPEB [PDF]
The regulation of mRNA deadenylation constitutes a pivotal mechanism of the post-transcriptional control of gene expression. Here we show that the antiproliferative protein Tob, a component of the Caf1-Ccr4 deadenylase complex, is involved in regulating the expression of the proto-oncogene c-myc.

Induced pluripotent stem cells are usually derived by reprogramming transcription factors (OSKM), such as octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (OCT4), (sex determining region Y)-box 2 (SOX2), Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4), and cellular proto-oncogene (c-

The deazaguanine‐derivative, queuine, affects cell proliferation, protein phosphorylation and the expression of the proto oncogenes c‐fos and c‐myc in HeLa cells [PDF]
In higher eukaryotes the hypermodified guanine analogue, queuine (7‐(5‐(((1S,4S,5R)‐4,5‐dihydroxy‐2‐cyclopentene‐1‐yl)amino)‐methyl)‐7‐deazaguanine), occurs free or as modified nucleoside (Q) in the anticodon of specific tRNAs. Fast proliferating tissues and tumors contain considerable amounts of free queuine and Q‐deficient tRNAs.

Hexachlorobenzene-Induced Early Changes in Ornithine Decarboxylase and Protein Tyrosine Kinase Activities, Polyamines and c-Myc, c-Fos and c-Jun Proto-Oncogenes in Rat Liver [PDF]
El hexaclorobenceno (HCB) es un compuesto químico lipófilo que se distribuye ampliamente en el medio ambiente. Se sabe que el HCB causa tumores hepáticos en animales de experimentación. En el presente estudio se investigó el efecto in vivo del tratamiento con HCB sobre las actividades de la ornitina descarboxilasa (ODC) y la proteína tirosina quinasa ...

Maf1, a new player in the regulation of human RNA polymerase III transcription. [PDF]
Human RNA polymerase III (pol III) transcription is regulated by several factors, including the tumor suppressors P53 and Rb, and the proto-oncogene c-Myc.

Heat Shock Protein 90α–Dependent B‐Cell‐2–Associated Transcription Factor 1 Promotes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Proliferation by Regulating MYC Proto‐Oncogene c‐MYC mRNA Stability [PDF]
B‐cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl‐2)‐associated transcription factor 1 (Bclaf1) is known to be involved in diverse biological processes, but, to date, there has been no evidence for any functional role of Bclaf1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression.

Amino Acid Transporters as Potential Therapeutic Targets in Thyroid Cancer [PDF]
Thyroid cancer cells have a high amino acid demand for proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. Amino acids are taken up by thyroid cancer cells, both thyroid follicular cell and thyroid parafollicular cells (commonly called “C-cells”), via amino acid ...
