  1. 1. The Interaction of the Adenovirus E1B-55K Protein with a Histone Deacetylase Complex: Its Importance in Regulation of P53 Protein Functions

    Author : Tanel Punga; Göran Akusjärvi; Klas G. Wiman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; adenovirus; E1B-55K; p53; histone acetylation; Sin3; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : The human tumour suppressor protein p53 is an effective inhibitor of cell growth, by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. However, p53-induced cell growth inhibition can be detrimental for virus multiplication. Therefore, viruses encode for proteins, which can interfere with the functions of the p53 protein. READ MORE

  2. 2. Histone deacetylases and their co-regulators in schizosaccharomyces pombe

    Author : Rebecka A. Silverstein; Karl Ekwall; Anthony Wright; Fred Van Leeuwen; Södertörns högskola; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The DNA in every eukaryotic cell is wrapped around eight core histones to form the nucleosome. Therefore all events that involve DNA must also involve chromatin and nucleosomes. By regulating chromatin structure the cell can regulate the reactivity of the DNA. READ MORE

  3. 3. The role of the leukemia-associated ETO homologue repressors in hematopoiesis

    Author : André Olsson; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MTGR1; ETO; MTG16; AML1-ETO; hematopoiesis; leukemia; diffferentiation; extracellular fluids; Haematology; Medicin människa och djur ; extracellulära vätskor; Hematologi; Medicine human and vertebrates ;

    Abstract : The fusion protein AML1-ETO is observed in acute myeloid patients with the chromosomal translocation t(8;21). Cells with this chimeric protein have impaired granulocytic and erythroid differentiation with accumulation of myeloblasts. The transcriptional co-repressor ETO (Eight Twenty One) was identified from the cloning of AML1-ETO. READ MORE

  4. 4. Mating type switching and transcriptional silencing in Kluyveromyces lactis

    Author : Emad Barsoum; Åström Stefan; Laura Rusche; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mating type switch; transcriptional silencing; alpha3; transposase; Ume6; Mts1; Ras; cAMP; K. lactis; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology;

    Abstract : To explore the similarities and differences of regulatory circuits among budding yeasts, we characterized the role of unscheduled meiotic gene expression 6 (UME6) and a novel mating type switching pathway in Kluyveromyces lactis. We found that Ume6 was required for transcriptional silencing of the cryptic mating-type loci HMLα and HMRa. READ MORE

  5. 5. Studies of histone modification systems in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

    Author : Carolina Bonilla; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The genetic information in every cell is carried in the DNA. In eukaryotes the DNA is wrapped twice around proteins called histones forming a repeating unit called the nucleosome, in fibers known as chromatin. Nucleosomes are folded into higher order structures forming the chromosomes. READ MORE
