Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

28.8K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region02:40

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region

18.7K
The eukaryotic promoter region is a segment of DNA located upstream of a gene. It contains an RNA polymerase binding site, a transcription start site, and several cis-regulatory sequences.  The proximal promoter region is located in the vicinity of the gene and has cis-regulatory sequences and the core promoter. The core promoter is the binding site for RNA polymerase and is usually located between -35 and +35 nucleotides from the transcription start site. The distal promoter regions are...

Epigenetic Regulation

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

IR Frequency Region: Fingerprint Region01:03

IR Frequency Region: Fingerprint Region

1.9K
IR spectra are divided into two main regions: the diagnostic region and the fingerprint region. The diagnostic region of the spectrum lies above 1500 cm−1. The absorptions resulting from single-bond vibrations of the N–H, C–H, and O–H stretch at higher wavenumbers and appear on the left side of the spectrum. The stretching absorptions of the C≡C and C≡N occur between 2100–2300 cm−1. In contrast, those arising from stretching absorptions of the...

GTPases and their Regulation02:14

GTPases and their Regulation

9.8K
Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G-proteins), also known as GTPases, are a superfamily of proteins that regulate many cellular processes, such as cell signaling, vesicular transport, and the regulation of cell shape and motility. Mutation or dysfunction of these proteins can lead to disease. There are around 40,000 known G-proteins that can broadly be classified into two groups ‒  small G-proteins consisting of a single domain and large multi-domain G-proteins.
Large G-proteins,...

Regulated mRNA Transport02:22

Regulated mRNA Transport

7.0K
In eukaryotes, transcription and translation are compartmentalized; an mRNA is first synthesized in the nucleus and then selectively transported to the cytoplasm for protein synthesis. Before transport, a pre-mRNA undergoes several steps of post-transcriptional modifications including splicing, 5' capping, and the addition of a poly-adenine tail. Various proteins bind to the pre-mRNA during these modifications. The mRNA transport takes place with the help of multiple proteins playing...

Area of Science:

  • Developmental Biology
  • Genetics
  • Orthopedics

Background:

  • Bone protrusions are crucial for skeletal structure and function.
  • The genetic mechanisms governing the patterning of these bone superstructures remain largely unknown.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify the genetic components controlling the patterning of bone superstructure progenitors.
  • To elucidate the roles of global and regional regulatory modules in this process.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized light-sheet fluorescence microscopy and genetic lineage labeling in mice.
  • Performed comparative transcriptomic analysis and studied genetic mouse models.
  • Investigated compound mutations in key regulatory genes.

Main Results:

  • Mapped the contribution of Sox9+/Scx+ progenitors to bone superstructure formation.
  • Identified Gli3 as a global regulator and Pbx1, Pbx2, Hoxa11, Hoxd11 as regional regulators.
  • Demonstrated coordinated action between global and regional regulatory modules via dose-dependent mutation studies.

Conclusions:

  • Established strong evidence for genetic regulation of bone superstructure patterning.
  • Supported the concept of modularity in long bone development.
