To study roles of the myelin basic protein (mbp) gene products in nervous system development, cDNA cloning and expression analyses were performed in Xenopus laevis. We cloned cDNAs for XMBP.1 and XMBP.2 encoded by xmbp.1 and xmbp.2 genes, respectively. We also identified xmbp.1 gene transcripts encoding three XGolli (X. laevis gene of the oligodendrocyte lineage) proteins, XBG21.1, XJ37.1, and XTP8...
Osteochondrosis (OC) or leg weakness is an economically important disease of young fast growing pigs and is a concern of animal welfare. The etiology and pathogenesis of osteochondrosis is not fully understood yet, but any abnormalities in the formation of hypertrophic chondrocytes and disrupted blood supply to the growth cartilage are very important predisposing factors. Matrix gla protein (MGP)...
The members of the ionotropic glutamate receptor family, namely, a-amino-3-hydroxy-S-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA), kainate, and N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, are important mediators of the rapid synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. We have investigated the splicing pattern and expression of the kainate receptor subunit GluR6 in human fibroblast cell lines and brain...
Dihydrodiol dehydrogenases are a family of aldo-keto reductases (AKR1Cs) involved in the metabolism of steroid hormones and xenobiotics. Herein, we have cloned and characterized the proximal promoter region of the human AKR1C1 gene. The 5′ flanking proximal promoter region of the AKR1C1 gene consists of a TATA box and an inverted CCAAT binding site. Deletion analysis of the 5′ flanking, ∼3.0kb region...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small single-stranded RNAs with a length of about 21nt; these non-coding RNAs regulate developmental and stress responses in plants by cleaving mRNAs. Cold stress is one of the most severe abiotic stresses and adversely affects rice yields by restraining sowing time, causing tissue damage, and stunting growth. Although many miRNAs have been identified in rice, little is known...
