Huntington's disease (HD), caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the huntingtin (HTT) gene, is characterized by abnormal protein aggregates and motor and cognitive dysfunction. Htt protein is ubiquitously expressed, but the striatal medium spiny neuron (MSN) ...
Angiogenesis is the process by which new blood vessels arise from existing ones by the budding out of endothelial cell capillaries from the luminal side of blood vessels. Blood vessel formation is essential for organ development during embryogenesis and is ...
The three peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are ligand-activated transcription factors of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. They share a high degree of structural homology with all members of the superfamily, particularly in the D ...
BACKGROUND: To understand cancer-related modifications to transcriptional programs requires detailed knowledge about the activation of signal-transduction pathways and gene expression programs. To investigate the mechanisms of target gene regulation by hum ...
During the course of evolution, many genes that control the development of metazoan body plans were co-opted to exert novel functions, along with the emergence or modification of structures. Gene amplification and/or changes in the cis- regulatory modules ...
Somitogenesis is the key developmental process that lays down the framework for a metameric body in vertebrates. Somites are generated from the un-segmented presomitic mesoderm (PSM) by a pre-patterning process driven by a molecular oscillator termed the s ...
With the increasing availability of experimental data on gene-gene and protein-protein interactions, modeling of gene regulatory networks has gained a special attention lately. To have a better understanding of these networks it is necessary to capture the ...
BACKGROUND: Processing by gamma-secretase of many type-I membrane protein substrates triggers signaling cascades by releasing intracellular domains (ICDs) that, following nuclear translocation, modulate the transcription of different genes regulating a div ...
Current advanced molecular biology techniques provide gene expression (mRNA) levels of selected genes of an organism. In such aggregate, the mRNA level of one gene is mediated by the presence of specific proteins and metabolites produced by other genes. Ge ...
In this project, characterization of the MAPK signaling cascade was done using the terminal patterning of Drosophila embryo as an experimental system. MAPK acts downstream of the Torso receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) whose activation is limited to the poles ...
