Epigenetic Regulation

33.9K
Epigenetic mechanisms play an essential role in healthy development. Conversely, precisely regulated epigenetic mechanisms are disrupted in diseases like cancer.

Regulation of Expression Occurs at Multiple Steps

26.6K
Gene expression can be regulated at almost every step from gene to protein. Transcription is the step that is most commonly regulated. This involves the binding of proteins to short regulatory sequences on the DNA. This association can either promote or inhibit the transcription of a gene associated with the respective sequence.
Transcription results in the generation of precursor (pre-mRNA) that consists of both exons and introns, which needs further processing before being translated to a...

Cells Coordinate Growth and Proliferation

5.2K
Cell size is a significant factor impacting cellular design, function, and fitness. There exists some internal coordination by which cells double their masses before division, thus, achieving homeostasis. Coordination between cell growth and proliferation depends on the checkpoints in between cell cycle phases. Loss of coordination or failure in the checkpoint mechanism can drive the cell to uncontrolled growth and loss of cellular function. Like dividing cells that coordinate cellular growth,...

pH Regulation in Cells

7.8K
pH plays a critical role in maintaining normal cellular activities. It helps maintain the structure and function of various proteins, dictates the charge on cellular membranes, and is crucial for metabolic reactions inside the cell. Moreover, cells use the energy from the proton motive force to generate ATP.
Cytosolic pH
Under physiological conditions, the cytosolic pH is slightly more acidic than the extracellular pH. However, cells must prevent further acidification of their cytosol to...

RNA Polymerase II Accessory Proteins

11.1K
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...

Master Transcription Regulators02:23

Master Transcription Regulators

7.9K
Master transcription regulators are regulatory proteins that are predominantly responsible for regulating the expression of multiple genes. Often these genes work in concert to drive a  complex process. Activation of a master transcription regulator can lead to a cascade of transcriptional activation necessary for that outcome. These regulators can directly bind to the regulatory sequences of the various genes involved, or they can indirectly regulate transcription by binding to regulatory...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

OPA-interacting protein 5 antisense transcript 1 (OIP5-AS1), a long noncoding RNA, positively regulates cell proliferation. Silencing OIP5-AS1 in HeLa cells led to G2/M phase cell-cycle arrest, reducing proliferation.

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • OPA-interacting protein 5 antisense transcript 1 (OIP5-AS1) is a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) located on chromosome 15q15.1.
  • OIP5-AS1 is transcribed antisense to the OIP5 gene.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role of OIP5-AS1 in regulating cell proliferation.
  • To determine the effect of OIP5-AS1 on cell cycle progression and apoptosis.

Main Methods:

  • HeLa cells were transfected with OIP5-AS1-targeting siRNA and antisense oligonucleotides.
  • Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to assess OIP5-AS1 expression.
  • Cell-cycle analysis and apoptosis assays were performed 72 hours post-transfection.

Main Results:

  • OIP5-AS1 expression was lower in cells with Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (K-RAS) mutations compared to wild-type.
  • Silencing OIP5-AS1 reduced HeLa cell proliferation.
  • Silencing OIP5-AS1 induced G2/M phase cell-cycle arrest without affecting apoptosis.

Conclusions:

  • OIP5-AS1 positively regulates cell proliferation.
  • OIP5-AS1 promotes cell proliferation by facilitating G2/M phase progression.
