  • Two such genes in Drosophila encode the enzymes dopa decarboxylase (Ddc) and tyrosine hydroxylase (ple) . (sdbonline.org)
  • A mutation in this gene resulting in reduced cell proliferation, and impaired cell motility and polarity, and has been identified in patients with primary microcephaly. (cancerindex.org)
  • Diese Gene üben hauptsächlich Funktionen im Bereich von Apoptose, Proliferation und Inflammation aus. (tum.de)
  • Up-regulated gene-4 ( URG4 ), also known as upregulator of cell proliferation ( URGCP ), is overexpressed in multiple tumor types and has been suggested to act as an oncogene. (biomedcentral.com)
  • These data reveal an imprecise relationship between IKK activation, IkappaBalpha degradation, and NF-kappaB DNA binding, suggesting the existence of additional mechanisms that regulate NF-kappaB activation. (nih.gov)
  • The physicochemical and conformational characteristics of the abnormal light chains are primarily responsible for the downstream events affecting the mesangial milieu. (heraldopenaccess.us)
  • PLCG1 also leads to NF-Kappa-B activation and the transcription of genes involved in cell survival. (biossusa.com)
  • We use these engineered Cas9 activation complexes to investigate sgRNA targeting rules for effective transcriptional activation, demonstrate multiplexed activation of 10 genes simultaneously, and upregulate long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA) transcripts. (cdc.gov)
  • The NF-κB transcription factor is also linked to tumor initiation and progression. (ashpublications.org)
  • This leads to IkappaBalpha degradation and release of NF-kappaB. (nih.gov)
  • This was consistent with IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and degradation, yet TNF-alpha-induced NF-kappaB DNA binding was only 30-40% greater than for IL-1beta. (nih.gov)
  • IkappaBalpha complexes or degradation-independent release of NF-kappaB. (nih.gov)
  • This leads to transcriptional de-repression of PRC1-target genes and mitotic chromosome segregation errors. (escholarship.org)
  • In the present study, we demonstrate that IRE1α (also known as ERN1) and its downstream target, XBP1, are activated in skeletal muscle of mice upon injury. (elifesciences.org)
  • Activation of TLR5 in these patients leads to subsequent activation of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL). (wikipedia.org)
