1Freelance Investigator in Translational Science & Medicine (unaffiliated), 833 Carroll Road, Charleston, WV 25314, USA.
Aim:
To study the conserved basis for gene expression in comparative cell types at opposite ends of the cell pressuromodulation spectrum, the lymphatic endothelial cell and the blood microvascular capillary endothelial cell.
Methods:
The mechanism for gene expression is studied in terms of the 5' -> 3' direction paired point tropy quotients (prpTQs) and the final 5' -> 3' direction episodic sub-episode block sums split-integrated weighted average-averaged gene overexpression tropy quotient (esebssiwaagoTQ).
Results:
The final 5' -> 3' esebssiwaagoT classifies an lymphatic endothelial cell overexpressed gene as a supra-pressuromodulated gene (esebssiwaagoTQ ≥ 0.25 < 0.75) every time and classifies a blood microvascular capillary endothelial cell overexpressed gene every time as an infra-pressuromodulated gene (esebssiwaagoTQ < 0.25) (100% sensitivity; 100% specificity).
Conclusion:
Horizontal alignment of 5' -> 3' intergene distance segment tropy wrt the gene is the basis for DNA transcription in the pressuromodulated state.

Transcription Elongation Factors
The transcription elongation is regulated via pausing of RNA polymerase on several occasions during transcription. In bacteria, these halts are necessary because the transcription of DNA into mRNA is coupled to the translation of that mRNA...
