  2. 1. The role of hnRNP A1 and hnRNP C1/C2 in the regulation of the stress responsive genes Cyp2a5/2A6 and p53

    Author : Kyle Christian; Matti Lang; Françoise Raffalli-Mathieu; Kirsi Vähägangas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Molecular biology; hnRNP; Tumor Suppressor Protein p53; CYP2A5; CYP2A6; Apoptosis; hnRNP C Proteins; hnRNP protein A1; Cancer; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : The family of proteins known as heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs) is large and diverse. Often, one and the same hnRNP will perform multiple cellular functions, leading to their description as “multifunctional proteins”. READ MORE

  4. 2. Cellular proteins binding to the HCV 5' and 3' UTRs

    Author : Karin Spångberg; Ingemar Ernberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Hepatitis C virus; RNA-binding proteins; mRNA stability; translation; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Medical Virology; medicinsk virologi;

    Abstract : Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a worldwide health problem with more than 170 million people infected by the virus. About 80% become chronic carriers, which may result in hepatocellular carcinoma. The lack of an in vitro cell culture system that allows propagation of the virus has hampered the development of a vaccine or anti-viral drugs against HCV. READ MORE

  5. 3. Control of human papillomavirus type 1 late mRNA stability and translation by an AU-rich RNA element

    Author : Marcus Sokolowski; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; HPV-1; HPV-16; late genes; 3´ UTR; L1; L2; c-fos; AU rich element; HuR; hnRNP C1 C2; mRNA stability; translation; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Medical Virology; medicinsk virologi;

    Abstract : Human Papillomaviruses (HPVs) infect the epithelial tissues in humans and infection with certain high-risk types is associated with cancer. The expressionof the HPV late capsid genes is dependent on cell differentiation. This may be one reason for the lack of HPV replication in vitro. READ MORE

  6. 4. Isolation and functional characterization of Hrp65-binding proteins in Chironomus tentans

    Author : Eva Kiesler; Neus Visa; Benjamin Blencowe; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; gene expression; RNA-binding proteins; mRNA biogenesis; nuclear structure; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : It is well-established that the organization of nuclear components influences gene expression processes, yet little is known about the mechanisms that contribute to the spatial co-ordination of nuclear activities. The salivary gland cells of Chironomus tentans provide a suitable model system for studying gene expression in situ, as they allow for direct visualization of the synthesis, processing and export of a specific protein-coding transcript, the Balbiani ring (BR) pre-mRNA, in a nuclear environment in which chromatin and non-chromatin structures can easily be distinguished.

  7. 5. Regulation of HPV16 Early Gene Expression

    Author : Yunji Zheng; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HPV16; splicing; mRNA; hnRNP A1; hnRNP G; E6; E7; E1; E2;

    Abstract : Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) is the most common high-risk type and isassociated with more than 50% cervical cancer cases as well as a number of headand neck cancer cases. The life cycle of HPV16 is strictly linked to celldifferentiation in the squamous epithelium with expression of the HPV16 earlygenes. READ MORE
