Combinatorial Gene Control02:33

Combinatorial Gene Control

8.5K
Combinatorial gene control is the synergistic action of several transcriptional factors to regulate the expression of a single gene. The absence of one or more of these factors may lead to a significant difference in the level of gene expression or repression.
The expression of more than 30,000 genes is controlled by approximately 2000-3000 transcription factors. This is possible because a single transcription factor can recognize more than one regulatory sequence. The specificity in gene...

Negative Regulator Molecules01:23

Negative Regulator Molecules

32.1K
Positive regulators allow a cell to advance through cell cycle checkpoints. Negative regulators have an equally important role as they terminate a cell’s progression through the cell cycle—or pause it—until the cell meets specific criteria.

RNA Polymerase II Accessory Proteins

8.9K
Proteins that regulate transcription can do so either via direct contact with RNA Polymerase or through indirect interactions facilitated by adaptors, mediators, histone-modifying proteins, and nucleosome remodelers. Direct interactions to activate transcription is seen in bacteria as well as in some eukaryotic genes. In these cases, upstream activation sequences are adjacent to the promoters, and the activator proteins interact directly with the transcriptional machinery. For example, in...

The Cell Cycle Control System01:28

The Cell Cycle Control System

5.1K
The cell cycle regulation directs how a cell proceeds from one phase to the next and begins mitosis. The cell cycle control system includes intracellular regulatory molecules and external triggers. They provide "stop" or "advance" signals and operate at specific cell cycle stages termed checkpoints to ensure that a particular process is completed before the cell advances to the next phase.
Cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) are the primary cell cycle regulators and...

The Cell Cycle Control System02:11

The Cell Cycle Control System

11.9K
The cell cycle is an organized set of events that leads the cell to divide into two daughter cells, each containing chromosomes identical to the parent cell. It is the cell cycle that leads to the formation of an entire organism from a single-cell zygote. Besides, cell division also functions in the renewal or repair of tissues in adult multicellular eukaryotes. For example, in the bone marrow, the stem cells divide to form new blood cells. Although essential for several functions, cell...

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Cell Biology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • G1-S transcriptional control orchestrates the expression of co-regulated genes during cell cycle progression.
  • Regulating transcription factor activity, via co-factors or promoter DNA binding, is crucial for confining gene expression to the G1 phase.
  • Analyzing G1-S transcriptional control necessitates synchronized cell cycles and monitoring of synchrony.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a robust method for cell cycle synchrony and its monitoring.
  • To present a chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) protocol for mapping G1-S transcription factor binding to promoters.
  • To outline a quantitative PCR (qPCR) protocol for assessing gene expression changes throughout the cell cycle.

Main Methods:

  • Cell cycle synchronization and monitoring techniques.
  • Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) for transcription factor localization.
  • Quantitative PCR (qPCR) for gene expression analysis.

Main Results:

  • Established methods for synchronizing cells and verifying cell cycle synchrony.
  • Successfully applied ChIP to identify G1-S transcription factor binding at specific promoters.
  • Quantified gene expression changes during distinct cell cycle phases using qPCR.

Conclusions:

  • The described methods enable detailed investigation of G1-S transcriptional control mechanisms.
  • Understanding transcription factor binding dynamics and gene expression patterns provides insights into cell cycle regulation.
  • This approach facilitates research into the biological significance of G1-specific gene expression.
