Abstract:
ABSTRACT Max is a common dimerization partner for a family of transcription factors (Myc, Mad [or Mxi]), and Mnt [or Rox] proteins) that regulate cell growth, proliferation, and apoptosis. We recently characterized a novel Max-like protein, Mlx, which interacts with Mad1 and Mad4. Here we describe the cloning and functional characterization of a new family of basic helix-loop-helix–leucine zipper heterodimeric partners for Mlx termed the Mondo family. MondoA forms homodimers weakly and does not interact with Max or members of the Myc or Mad families. MondoA and Mlx associate in vivo, and surpr

Abstract:
Drosophila melanogaster Armadillo plays two distinct roles during development. It is a component of adherens junctions, and functions as a transcriptional activator in response to Wingless signaling. In the current model, Wingless signal causes stabilization of cytoplasmic Armadillo allowing it to enter the nucleus where it can activate transcription. However, the mechanism of nuclear import and export remains to be elucidated. In this study, we show that two gain-of-function alleles of Armadillo activate Wingless signaling by different mechanisms. The S10 allele was previously found to locali

ABSTRACT The initiation and termination of vaccinia virus postreplicative transcription have been reported to require cellular proteins, some of which are believed to be nuclear proteins. Vaccinia virus replicates in the cytoplasmic compartment of the cell, raising questions as to whether vaccinia virus has access to nuclear proteins. This was addressed here by following the fate of several nuclear proteins after infection of cells with vaccinia virus.

Before its destruction, cyclin C promotes stress-induced mitochondrial fission and programmed cell death, indicating that relocalization is an important cell fate regulator.

Abstract:
Bovine somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryos can develop to the blastocyst stage at a rate similar to that of embryos produced by IVF; however, its efficiency remains low. In this study, we examined the effects of cytoplasm restoration of enucleated oocyte, by injecting ~30% of the cytoplasm of a donor oocyte to restore the enucleated oocyte cytoplasm volume to normal, on the developmental competence and quality of bovine cloned embryos during pre-implantation using the TUNEL assay, quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) and immunocytochemistry.

This study evaluates the transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of prolactin (PRL) by vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). Pituitary nuclei from laying (control), incubating (with enhanced VIP secretion), and VIP-immunized laying turkey hens, and from pituitary cells cultured with or without VIP were used in nuclear run-on transcription assays. Cytoplasmic PRL mRNA was analyzed by slot blot hybridization. PRL transcription was greater in hyperprolactinemic incubating birds (PRL/beta-actin=3.33) than in laying birds (PRL/beta-actin=1.83). VIP-immunoneutralized birds had 47% and 51%

We have previously shown that RhoA-mediated actin polymerization stimulates smooth muscle cell (SMC)-specific transcription by regulating the nuclear localization of the myocardin-related transcription factors (MRTFs). On the basis of the recent demonstration that nuclear G-actin regulates MRTF nuclear export and observations from our laboratory and others that the RhoA effector, mDia2, shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, we investigated whether nuclear RhoA signaling plays a role in regulating MRTF activity. We identified sequences that control mDia2 nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling and

The Ssy1-Ptr3-Ssy5 (SPS)–sensing pathway enables yeast to respond to extracellular amino acids. Stp1, the effector transcription factor, is synthesized as a latent cytoplasmic precursor with an N-terminal regulatory domain that restricts its nuclear accumulation. The negative regulatory mechanisms impinging on the N-terminal domain are poorly understood. However, Stp1 latency depends on three inner nuclear membrane proteins, Asi1, Asi2, and Asi3. We report that the N-terminal domain of Stp1 contains a small motif, designated RI, that fully accounts for latency. RI is modular, mediates interact

ABSTRACT Wnt signaling stabilizes β-catenin, which in turn influences the transcription of Wnt-responsive genes in conjunction with T-cell factor (TCF) transcription factors. At present, there are two models for the actions of β-catenin. The conventional nuclear model suggests that β-catenin acts in the nucleus to form a heterodimeric transcriptional factor complex with TCF, with TCF providing DNA-specific binding and the C and N termini of β-catenin stimulating transcription. The alternative cytoplasmic model postulates that β-catenin exports TCF from the nucleus to relieve its repressive act

Three genes control this signaling pathway: RTG1 andRTG3, which encode basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factors that bind as heterodimer to theCIT2 upstream activation site, and RTG2, which encodes a protein of u
