A Novel Method for Gene-Specific Enhancement of Protein Translation by Targeting 5'UTRs of Selected Tumor Suppressors. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Translational control is a mechanism of protein synthesis regulation emerging as an important target for new therapeutics. Naturally occurring microRNAs and synthetic small inhibitory RNAs (siRNAs) are the most recognized regulatory molecules ...

An emerging and variant viral promoter of HIV-1 subtype C exhibits low-level gene expression noise
Background We observe the emergence of several promoter-variant viral strains in India during recent years. The variant viral promoters contain additional copies of transcription factor binding sites present in the viral modulatory region or enhancer ...

The cAMP Inducers Modify N-Acetylaspartate Metabolism in Wistar Rat Brain
Neuronal N-acetylaspartate production appears in the presence of aspartate N-acetyltransferase (NAT8L) and binds acetyl groups from acetyl-CoA with aspartic acid.

Activation of the U2 snRNA promoter by the octamer motif defines a new class of RNA polymerase II enhancer elements [PDF]
The recent discovery that the activation domains of transcriptional activators (e.g., GAL4) from a number of species are interchangeable has led to the concept of a general mechanism for activation of RNA polymerase II genes.

A trans-activator-like structure in RCNMV RNA1 evokes the origin of the trans-activator in RNA2
The Red clover necrotic mosaic virus (RCNMV) genome consists of two plus-strand RNA genome segments, RNA1 and RNA2. RNA2 contains a multifunctional RNA structure known as the trans-activator (TA) that (i) promotes subgenomic mRNA transcription from RNA1, (ii) facilitates replication of RNA2, and (iii) mediates particle assembly and copackaging of ...

Bioassay for trans-activation using purified human immunodeficiency virus tat-encoded protein: trans-activation requires mRNA synthesis. [PDF]
Expression of the human immunodeficiency virus tat-encoded protein (Tat) is required for virus replication. A genetic approach was used to facilitate the purification of biologically active Tat. A recombinant Tat protein containing a stretch of six histidine residues and a protease cleavage site was engineered and purified to greater than 95 ...

Cross regulation of sirtuin 1, AMPK, and PPARγ in conjugated linoleic acid treated adipocytes. [PDF]
Trans-10, cis-12 conjugated linoleic acid (t10c12 CLA) reduces triglyceride (TG) levels in adipocytes through multiple pathways, with AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) generally facilitating, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ ...

Cell-Cycle Dependence of Transcription Dominates Noise in Gene Expression [PDF]
The large variability in mRNA and protein levels found from both static and dynamic measurements in single cells has been largely attributed to random periods of transcription, often occurring in bursts.
