RNA polymerase (pol) III synthesizes tRNA, 5s rRNA, 7SL RNA and U6 snRNA and is overexpressed in many transformed cell lines and tumors in vivo, since cells...
Transcriptional control is in part regulated by interactions between DNA-bound transcription factors, such as Egr-1/NGFI-A, and coregulatory proteins, such...
Growth arrest specific proteins, including Gas1 and Gas6, are activated in quiescent cells. Gas1-induced growth arrest is mediated by p53, and Gas1 appears...
PSMD2 (proteasome (prosome, macropain) 26S subunit, non-ATPase 2), also known as S2, TRAP2 (tumor necrosis factor type 1 receptor-associated protein 2) or...
The type II cAMP-protein kinase (PKA) is a multifunctional kinase with a broad range of substrates. Specificity of PKA signaling is thought to be mediated by...
The MN1 gene, which resides on chromosome 22, encodes a 1,319 amino acid protein. The ETV6/TEL gene has been reported to fuse to MN1. The MN1-TEL fusion...
Pre-mRNA splicing enhancer elements are short RNA sequences capable of activating weak splice sites in nearby introns that are required for accurate splice...
The transcription factor C/EBP alpha (CCAAT-enhancer binding protein) is a heatstable, sequence-specific DNA-binding protein first purified from rat liver...
ETK, also known as BMX, is a member of the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) family. It is expressed in a variety of hematopoietic, epithelial and endothelial...
The CDC-like kinase 1 (CLK1) dually phosphorylates serine and arginine rich proteins of the spliceosomal complex, which constitutes a network of regulatory...
Mutations in two genes, Endoglin (also designated CD105) and ACVRL1 (activin receptorlike kinase 1, also designated TGFbeta superfamily RI), are responsible...
Hemostasis following tissue injury involves the deployment of essential plasma procoagulants (Prothrombin and Factors X, IX, V and VIII), which mediate a...
The T-box (Tbx) motif is present in a family of genes whose structural features and expression patterns support their involvement in developmental gene...
The c-Jun protein is a major component of the transcription factor AP-1, originally shown to mediate phorbol ester tumor promoter (TPA)-induced expression of...
In eukaryotic cells, mitosis is initiated following the activation of a protein kinase known variously as maturation-promoting factor, M-phase specific...
B-cell linker protein (BLNK, also known as SLP65, BASH, and BCA) is a B cell adaptor that plays an important role in B cell development and in BCR-signal...
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a pleiotropic cytokine whose function is mediated by two distinct cell surface receptors, designated TNF-R1 and TNF-R2, which...
FLIP (FLICE inhibitory protein) is expressed as both long and short forms and is involved in the regulation of apoptosis. The short form of FLIP contains two...
Cyclic AMP-regulated gene expression frequently involves a DNA element designated the cAMP-regulated enhancer (CRE). Many transcription factors bind to this...
The Granzyme family of proteins belong to the larger peptidase S1 family.Granzyme H, also designated cytotoxic T-lymphocyte proteinase, cathepsin G-like 2...
