THE THEOBROMA CACAO B3 DOMAIN TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR TCLEC2 PLAYS A DUEL ROLE IN CONTROL OF EMBRYO DEVELOPMENT AND MATURATION

The Arabidopsis thaliana LEC2 gene encodes a B3 domain transcription factor, which plays critical roles during both zygotic and somatic embryogenesis. LEC2 exerts significant impacts on determining embryogenic potential and various metabolic processes through a complicated genetic regulatory network[r]

Renilla luciferase gene as a transfection efficiency control, and 0.75 l g of firefly luciferase reporter plasmid per well. Lysates were prepared 24 h after transfection by adding 100 l L of passive lysis buffer (Dual Luciferase Reporter Assay System; Promega). Lucife[r]

1.2.3 Role of NFAT in cardiogenesis
Different NFAT isoforms are considered to have redundant functions. However, the specific tissue distribution of individual NFAT protein makes NFATs possess different functions in a wide range of cells.[r]

Apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), named for its involvement in cell death pathways, is a mitochondrial protein that regulates metabolic homeostasis. In addition to supporting the survival of healthy cells, AIF also plays a contributory role to the development of cancer through its enzymatic activity,[r]

Chronic Helicobacter pylori infection plays a central role in the development of gastric cancer as shown by biological and epidemiological studies. The H. pylori antibody and serum pepsinogen (PG) tests have been anticipated to predict gastric cancer development.

Results
YB-1 negatively regulates Sox2 expression in breast cancer We first examined if Sox2 expression can be regulated by YB-1. As shown in Figure 1A, we found that siRNA knockdown of YB-1 induced a substantial increase in Sox2 prote[r]

The financial services sector is an important constituent of the financial system and plays a significant role in the realm of economic development of a country. Merchant Banking is a prominent component of the financial sector of our country.

The Arabidopsis AtMYB80 transcription factor regulates genes involved in pollen development and controls the timing of tapetal programmed cell death (PCD). Downregulation of AtMYB80 expression precedes tapetal degradation.

Concluding remarks
In this study, we show that Noxo1 c , a novel alternat- ive splicing form of human Noxo1 containing an addi- tional five amino acids in the PX domain, is expressed in the testis and fetal brain (Fig. 2). Duri[r]

Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β plays a pivotal role in cancer progression through regulating cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and remodeling of the tumor microenvironment. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are the predominant type of stromal cell, in which TGF-β signaling is activated.

The flavan-3-ols catechin and epicatechin, and their polymerized oligomers, the proanthocyanidins (PAs, also called condensed tannins), accumulate to levels of up to 15 % of the total weight of dry seeds of Theobroma cacao L.

Transcription factor (TF) networks play a key role in controlling the transfer of genetic information from gene to mRNA. Much progress has been made on understanding and reverse-engineering TF network topologies using a range of experimental and theoretical methodologies.
