Selenium (Se) and Selenoprotein W (SelW) plays a pivotal role in the brain development, function, and degeneration and that SelW expression in the brain may be affected by Se. However, the mechanism which Se regulates the SelW gene expression in neurons remains to be unclear. To investigate the effects of the SelW gene expression and mRNA stability induced by Se, primary cultured chicken embryos neurons...
Selenoprotein W (SelW) and selenium (Se) plays important roles in gastrointestinal function and that SelW expression in the gastrointestinal system of mammals is sensitive to Se levels. However, little is known about the pattern of SelW expression in the bird gastrointestinal tract. To investigate the distribution of SelW and effects of dietary Se levels on the SelW mRNA expression in the gastrointestinal...
In this study, a novel avian selenoprotein W (SelW) gene was cloned from chicken cerebral tissue. The complete nucleotide sequence of the gene contained a 258 bp open reading frame encoding 85 amino acids. Bioinformatics approaches identified the chicken SelW protein is characterized by a β-α-β-β-β-α secondary structure pattern, wherein β1 and β2 are parallel strands forming a classical β1-α1-β2 motif,...
