Project description:To monitor changes in the transcriptome following activation of Hog1 per se, we used a previously established inducible expression system of intrinsically active Hog1 proteins
Project description:To screen miRNAs specifically regulated by mTORC1 or mTORC2, a global miRNA expression profile in MCF-7 cells treated with rapamycin or PP242 (mTORC1/2 kinase inhibitor) was developed using microarray.
Project description:To screen miRNAs specifically regulated by mTORC1 or mTORC2, a global miRNA expression profile in MCF-7 cells treated with rapamycin or PP242 (mTORC1/2 kinase inhibitor) was developed using microarray. control, rapamycin or PP242 treated human MCF-7 cells were harvested 48h post-treatment and subjected to total RNA extraction.
Project description:To screen mRNAs specifically regulated by mTORC1, a global mRNA expression profile in calvarial osteoblasts (OBs) from mice with or without OB-specific Tsc1 knockout was developed using microarray.
Project description:Gene expression was quantified in crz1 hog1 delete S. cerevisae cells over a time course following calcineurin activation by CaCl2. Cells were pretreated with buffer or the calcineurin inhibitor FK506 to allow the identification of calcineurin-regulated genes. We show that calcineurin-dependent downregulation of G1/S genes is partly dependent on the osmostress-activated kinase Hog1.
Project description:The p53 family consists of three members, p53, p73, and p63. These proteins share a high degree of amino-acid sequence similarity and major functional domains. The p53 gene, the first member of the family to be identified, is the most frequent target gene for genetic alterations in human cancers. In contrast, p73 and p63 are mainly involved in normal development and differentiation. These differences among the p53 family are likely to depend on activation or repression of different sets of target genes. In this study, to identify targets specifically regulated by p73, we performed microarray analysis and compared expression patterns in a human steosarcoma cell line Saos-2 infected separately with p53 and TAp73beta expressing adenovirus.
