A deficiency of certain heterochromatic regions (ABO loci) of various chromosomes dramatically distorts the early embryo development in the progeny of females carrying mutation in the abnormal oocyte (abo) gene, which is located in euchromatin of chromosome 2. One ABO locus (X-ABO) is in X-heterochromatin distal to the nucleolus organizer. A cluster of the Stellate repeats is located in the same heterochromatic block. Deletions of various fragments from distal heterochromatin were tested for the effect on expression of the abo mutation. The X-ABO locus was assigned to X-chromosomal heterochromatin segment h26 and may include repeats consisting mostly of mobile elements and defective Stellate copies. A major part of the regular Stellate tandem repeats proved to be distal of the X-ABO locus. 相似文献

Hansenula polymorpha CBS 4732 was studied during cultivation on methanol and different glucose concentrations. Activities of Cu/Zn and Mn superoxide dismutase, catalase and methanol oxidase were investigated. During cultivation on methanol, increased superoxide dismutase and catalase activities and an induced methanol oxidase were achieved. Transfer of a methanol grown culture to medium with a high glucose concentration caused growth inhibition, low consumption of carbon, nitrogen and phosphate substrates, methanol oxidase inactivation as well as decrease of catalase activity (21.8 +/- 0.61 deltaE240 x min(-1) x mg protein(-1)). At the same time, a high value for superoxide dismutase enzyme was found (42.9 +/- 0.98 U x mg protein(-1), 25% of which was represented by Mn superoxide dismutase and 75% - by the Cu/Zn type). During derepression methanol oxidase was negligible (0.005 +/- 0.0001 U x mg protein(-1)), catalase tended to be the same as in the repressed culture, while superoxide dismutase activity increased considerably (63.67 +/- 1.72 U x mg protein(-1), 69% belonging to the Cu/Zn containing enzyme). Apparently, the cycle of growth inhibition and reactivation of Hansenula polymorpha CBS 4732 cells is strongly connected with the activity of the enzyme superoxide dismutase. 相似文献

Melanoma is the most lethal cutaneous cancer with a highly aggressive and metastatic phenotype. While recent genetic and epigenetic studies have shed new insights into the mechanism of melanoma development, the involvement of regulatory non‐coding RNAs remain unclear. Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group of endogenous non‐protein‐coding RNAs with the capacity to regulate gene expression at multiple levels. Recent evidences have shown that lncRNAs can regulate many cellular processes, such as cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and invasion. In the melanoma, deregulation of a number of lncRNAs, such as HOTAIR, MALAT1, BANCR, ANRIL, SPRY‐IT1 and SAMMSON, have been reported. Our review summarizes the functional role of lncRNAs in melanoma and their potential clinical application for diagnosis, prognostication and treatment. 相似文献

Background
The liver is an important organ for its ability to transform xenobiotics, making the liver tissue a prime target for toxic substances. The carotenoid bixin present in annatto is an antioxidant that can protect cells and tissues against the deleterious effects of free radicals. In this study, we evaluated the protective effect of bixin on liver damage induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in rats.Results
The animals were divided into four groups with six rats in each group. CCl4 (0.125 mL kg-1 body wt.) was injected intraperitoneally, and bixin (5.0 mg kg-1 body wt.) was given by gavage 7 days before the CCl4 injection. Bixin prevented the liver damage caused by CCl4, as noted by the significant decrease in serum aminotransferases release. Bixin protected the liver against the oxidizing effects of CCl4 by preventing a decrease in glutathione reductase activity and the levels of reduced glutathione and NADPH. The peroxidation of membrane lipids and histopathological damage of the liver was significantly prevented by bixin treatment.Conclusion
Therefore, we can conclude that the protective effect of bixin against hepatotoxicity induced by CCl4 is related to the antioxidant activity of the compound. 相似文献6.

The effects of suppressors of position-effect variegation were studied in a set of euchromatin–heterochromatin rearrangements of the X chromosome accompanied by inactivation of the gene wapl.The rearrangements differed from one another in the size of the heterochromatic block adjacent to euchromatin, with the euchromatin–heterochromatin border remaining unchanged. In one rearrangement (r20), the position effect caused by a small block of adjacent heterochromatin may be determined by its interaction with the neighboring main heterochromatic region of the X chromosome. Chromosome 3 (the RT chromosome) was found to have a strong suppressing effect on all rearrangements, irrespective of the amount of heterochromatin adjacent to euchromatin. Su-var(3)9, a known suppressor of the position-effect variegation, had a considerably weaker suppressing effect. The RT chromosome had the strongest suppressing effect on the rearrangement r20. 相似文献

In polytene chromosomes of D. melanogaster the heterochromatic pericentric regions are underreplicated (underrepresented). In this report, we analyze the effects of eu-heterochromatic rearrangements involving a cluster of the X-linked heterochromatic (Xh) Stellate repeats on the representation of these sequences in salivary gland polytene chromosomes. The discontinuous heterochromatic Stellate cluster contains specific restriction fragments that were mapped along the distal region of Xh. We found that transposition of a fragment of the Stellate cluster into euchromatin resulted in its replication in polytene chromosomes. Interestingly, only the Stellate repeats that remain within the pericentric Xh and are close to a new eu-heterochromatic boundary were replicated, strongly suggesting the existence of a spreading effect exerted by the adjacent euchromatin. Internal rearrangements of the distal Xh did not affect Stellate polytenization. We also demonstrated trans effects exerted by heterochromatic blocks on the replication of the rearranged heterochromatin; replication of transposed Stellate sequences was suppressed by a deletion of Xh and restored by addition of Y heterochromatin. This phenomenon is discussed in light of a possible role of heterochromatic proteins in the process of heterochromatin underrepresentation in polytene chromosomes. 相似文献

In(1LR)pn2a is a pericentric inversion with a euchromatic breakpoint in the 2E polytene region and a heterochromatic breakpoint in the
right arm of the X chromosome. It is associated with position-effect variegation (PEV) of the pn, wapl, Pgd and other vital loci of the 2E region, which are relocated near the bulk of the X heterochromatin. Cytological analysis showed that the rearrangement brings the 1A–2E euchromatic segment directly into contact
with a major portion of the h34 block, a heterochromatic region that is positively stained by the N-banding technique and
contains the AAGAG satellite sequences. Molecular cloning revealed the presence of a new junction between euchromatin and
AAGAG satellite sequences and demonstrated that the euchromatic breakpoint of In(1LR)pn2a lies in the vinculin gene. In the X ray-induced secondary rearrangement In(1LR)r30, consisting of a pericentric inversion superimposed on In(1LR)pn2a, the h34 material remains associated with the 2E region but is separated from the rest of the X heterochromatin. In this case, the pn, wapl and Pgd loci no longer variegate, suggesting that the satellite-containing h34 region is not able per se to induce detectable PEV
on the adjacent euchromatic genes.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the cell organelle where secretory and membrane proteins are synthesized and folded. Correctly folded proteins exit the ER and are transported to the Golgi and other destinations within the cell, but proteins that fail to fold properly—misfolded proteins—are retained in the ER and their accumulation may constitute a form of stress to the cell—ER stress. Several signaling pathways, collectively known as unfolded protein response (UPR), have evolved to detect the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the ER and activate a cellular response that attempts to maintain homeostasis and a normal flux of proteins in the ER. In certain severe situations of ER stress, however, the protective mechanisms activated by the UPR are not sufficient to restore normal ER function and cells die by apoptosis. Most research on the UPR used yeast or mammalian model systems and only recently Drosophila has emerged as a system to study the molecular and cellular mechanisms of the UPR. Here, we review recent advances in Drosophila UPR research, in the broad context of mammalian and yeast literature. 相似文献
