The NH2-terminal Jun kinases (JNKs) function in diverse roles through phosphorylation and activation of AP-1 components including ATF2 and c-Jun. However, the genes that mediate these processes are poorly understood. A model phenotype characterized by rapid activation of Jun kinase and enhanced DNA repair following cisplatin treatment was examined using chromatin immunoprecipitation with antibodies against ATF2 and c-Jun or their phosphorylated forms and hybridization to promoter arrays. Following genotoxic stress, we identified 269 genes whose promoters are bound upon phosphorylation of ATF2 and c-Jun. Binding did not occur following treatment with transplatin or the JNK inhibitor SP600125 or JNK-specific siRNA. Of 89 known DNA repair genes represented on the array, 23 are specifically activated by cisplatin treatment within 3-6 hr. Thus, the genotoxic stress response occurs at least partly via activation of ATF2 and c-Jun, leading to large-scale coordinate gene expression dominated by genes of DNA repair. 相似文献

The newly described Arunachal macaque Macaca munzala occurs largely in sub‐tropical to temperate environments at elevations of c. 1,800–3,000 m in Arunachal Pradesh, northeastern India. We studied its over‐wintering strategy by comparing the diet, ranging, and behavior of a troop of 24 individuals during winter and spring (December 2005 to May 2006) through instantaneous scan sampling (3,002 records, 448 scans, 112 hr of observation). We also monitored the phenology of food plants. The macaques spent more time (41–66%) feeding in the winter than in spring (33–51%), whereas time spent moving and resting was greater in spring. The diet composed largely of plants, with animal matter being eaten rarely. The number of plant species in the diet increased from 18 to 25 whereas food types rose from 18 to 36 from winter to spring, respectively. Although only two species formed 75% of the winter diet, seven species comprised this proportion in spring. Availability of fruits and young leaves increased in spring; the troop moved more and utilized a larger part of its range during this time. Seasonal changes in behavior could be explained by the scarcity of food and the costs of thermoregulation in winter. Our study suggests that the Arunachal macaque inhabits a highly seasonal environment and has an over‐wintering strategy that includes subsisting on a high‐fiber diet by increasing the time spent feeding, and minimizing energy expenditure by reducing the time spent moving.

Prostate cancer is a common cause of death in men and remains incurable in the metastatic setting. In 2004, 2 landmark trials using docetaxel-based chemotherapy, TAX 327 and SWOG 99-16, showed a survival benefit for the first time in metastatic, hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Current research suggests that several distinct mechanisms of androgen-refractory disease may converge in patients with disease progression on androgen deprivation therapy. These findings have identified several potential targets for therapeutic intervention. Current standard and investigational treatment options for this disease are discussed, including chemotherapy and rapidly evolving therapies in phase II/III trials involving antiangiogenic therapies, signal transduction inhibitors, immunomodulatory agents, and nuclear receptor targets. In light of a growing array of treatment options and an increasingly chronic natural history, this review supports a multidisciplinary care approach to these patients, including medical oncologists, urologists, and radiation oncologists, to optimize survival and quality of life. 相似文献

Down syndrome (DS) is one of the commonest disorders with huge medical and social cost. DS is associated with number of phenotypes including congenital heart defects, leukemia, Alzeihmer’s disease, Hirschsprung disease etc. DS individuals are affected by these phenotypes to a variable extent thus understanding the cause of this variation is a key challenge. In the present review article, we emphasize an overview of DS, DS-associated phenotypes diagnosis and management of the disease. The genes or miRNA involved in Down syndrome associated Alzheimer’s disease, congenital heart defects (AVSD), leukemia including AMKL and ALL, hypertension and Hirschprung disease are discussed in this article. Moreover, we have also reviewed various prenatal diagnostic method from karyotyping to rapid molecular methods - MLPA, FISH, QF-PCR, PSQ, NGS and noninvasive prenatal diagnosis in detail. 相似文献

The yeast SPT10 gene encodes a putative histone acetyltransferase that binds specifically to pairs of upstream activating sequence (UAS) elements found only in the histone gene promoters. Here, we demonstrate that the DNA-binding domain of Spt10p is located between residues 283 and 396 and includes a His(2)-Cys(2) zinc finger. The binding of Spt10p to the histone UAS is zinc-dependent and is disabled by a zinc finger mutation (C388S). The isolated DNA-binding domain binds to single histone UAS elements with high affinity. In contrast, full-length Spt10p binds with high affinity only to pairs of UAS elements with very strong positive cooperativity and is unable to bind to a single UAS element. This implies the presence of a "blocking" domain in full-length Spt10p, which forces it to search for a pair of UAS elements. Chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments indicate that, unlike wild-type Spt10p, the C388S protein does not bind to the promoter of the gene encoding histone H2A (HTA1) in vivo. The C388S mutant has a phenotype similar to that of the spt10Delta mutant: poor growth and global aberrations in gene expression. Thus, the C388S mutation disables the DNA-binding function of Spt10p in vitro and in vivo. The zinc finger of Spt10p is homologous to that of foamy virus integrase, perhaps suggesting that this integrase is also a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein. 相似文献

Short tandem repeats are highly polymorphic sequences of nucleotides, which are abundant in eukaryotic genome. They form approximately
3% of the total human genome and occur on average in every 10, 000 nucleotides. Due to their small dimension, low mutation,
and high level of polymorphism, these markers are intensely used as important genetic markers for mapping studies, disease
diagnosis, and human identity testing. In the present study allelic distribution of four autosomal short tandem repeat markers
(D21S2055, D21S11, D21S1435 and D21S1411) has been analyzed in Indian population. For determination of heterogeneity and their
allelic frequency QF-PCR analysis have been done. All the loci were found highly polymorphic. Marker D21S1411 was the most
informative (93.6%) and D21S1435 (70.1%) was the least informative marker in Indian population. 相似文献

Well-saturated linkage maps especially those based on expressed sequence tag (EST)-derived genic molecular markers (GMMs)
are a pre-requisite for molecular breeding. This is especially true in important legumes such as chickpea where few simple
sequence repeats (SSR) and even fewer GMM-based maps have been developed. Therefore, in this study, 2,496 ESTs were generated
from chickpea seeds and utilized for the development of 487 novel EST-derived functional markers which included 125 EST-SSRs,
151 intron targeted primers (ITPs), 109 expressed sequence tag polymorphisms (ESTPs), and 102 single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs). Whereas EST-SSRs, ITPs, and ESTPs were developed by in silico analysis of the developed EST sequences, SNPs were identified
by allele resequencing and their genotyping was performed using the Illumina GoldenGate Assay. Parental polymorphism was analyzed
between C. arietinum ICC4958 and C. reticulatum PI489777, parents of the reference chickpea mapping population, using a total of 872 markers: 487 new gene-based markers
developed in this study along with 385 previously published markers, of which 318 (36.5%) were found to be polymorphic and
were used for genotyping. The genotypic data were integrated with the previously published data of 108 markers and an advanced
linkage map was generated that contained 406 loci distributed on eight linkage groups that spanned 1,497.7 cM. The average
marker density was 3.68 cM and the average number of markers per LG was 50.8. Among the mapped markers, 303 new genomic locations
were defined that included 177 gene-based and 126 gSSRs (genomic SSRs) thereby producing the most advanced gene-rich map of
chickpea solely based on co-dominant markers. 相似文献

Influenza A virus infects 5-20% of the population annually, resulting in ~35,000 deaths and significant morbidity. Current treatments include vaccines and drugs that target viral proteins. However, both of these approaches have limitations, as vaccines require yearly development and the rapid evolution of viral proteins gives rise to drug resistance. In consequence additional intervention strategies, that target host factors required for the viral life cycle, are under investigation. Here we employed arrayed whole-genome siRNA screening strategies to identify cell-autonomous molecular components that are subverted to support H1N1 influenza A virus infection of human bronchial epithelial cells. Integration across relevant public data sets exposed druggable gene products required for epithelial cell infection or required for viral proteins to deflect host cell suicide checkpoint activation. Pharmacological inhibition of representative targets, RGGT and CHEK1, resulted in significant protection against infection of human epithelial cells by the A/WS/33 virus. In addition, chemical inhibition of RGGT partially protected against H5N1 and the 2009 H1N1 pandemic strain. The observations reported here thus contribute to an expanding body of studies directed at decoding vulnerabilities in the command and control networks specified by influenza virulence factors. 相似文献
