Alterations in the pattern of gene expression were studied during differentiation of the human embryonal carcinoma (EC) cell line NEC14. NEC14 cells can be induced to differentiate by the addition of 10(-2) M N,N'-hexamethylene-bis-acetamide (HMBA). The efficiency of DNA transfection of undifferentiated and differentiated NEC14 cells was compared by measuring the activities of endogenous and exogenously introduced promoters for the beta-actin gene and heat shock protein 70 gene. The results indicated that the efficiency was not significantly different in cells of these two states. Under the conditions used, all the viral enhancer-promoters tested showed very little or no activity in undifferentiated cells, but activities of SV40, BKV, adenovirus and RSV enhancers were greatly increased after differentiation. Activities of these viral enhancers in differentiated cells were completely repressed by cotransfection with the adenovirus E1A gene. An E1A-inducible promoter of the adenovirus E2 gene showed stronger activity in differentiated than in undifferentiated cells, and was not activated efficiently by cotransfection with the E1A gene in either undifferentiated or differentiated cells. These results indicate that factor(s) regulating activities of various enhancer-promoters in NEC14 cells is or are different from E1A-like factor(s) present in mouse EC F9 cells. 相似文献

Evidence for a stem cell-specific repressor of Moloney murine leukemia virus expression in embryonal carcinoma cells. 总被引:21,自引:5,他引:16 下载免费PDF全文
A negative regulatory element (NRE) spanning the tRNA primer-binding site (PBS) of Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV) mediates repression of M-MuLV expression specifically in embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells. We precisely defined the element by base-pair mutagenesis to an 18-base-pair segment of the tRNA PBS and showed that the element also restricted expression when moved upstream of the long terminal repeat. A DNA-binding activity specific for the M-MuLV NRE was detected in vitro by using crude EC nuclear extracts in exonuclease III protection assays. Binding was strongly correlated with repression in EC cells. Mutations within the NRE that relieved repression disrupted binding activity. Also, nuclear extracts prepared from permissive, differentiated EC cell cultures showed reduced binding activity for the NRE. These results indicate the presence of a stem cell-specific repressor that extinguishes M-MuLV expression via the NRE at the tRNA PBS. 相似文献

An embryonic DNA-binding protein specific for a region of the human IFN beta 1 promoter. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells are unable to make interferon in response to inducing agents. This block disappears after differentiation. We have found that nuclear extracts from undifferentiated P19 EC cells contain a DNA-binding activity which specifically recognizes a region within the human interferon-beta 1 promoter. This activity is absent from differentiated cell types, both of EC and non-EC origin. The binding of the factor in undifferentiated EC cells leads to dramatic changes in the overall protein binding pattern of the interferon promoter as compared with differentiated cells, and may be responsible for repression of the endogenous interferon-beta gene prior to differentiation. 相似文献
