Isolation and characterization of complementary DNA for N-cym, a gene encoded by the DNA strand opposite to N-myc.
- BiologyCell growth & differentiation : the molecular biology journal of the American Association for Cancer Research
- 1992
N-myc and N-cym are unique in that they appear to be coregulated in tumor cell lines under basal growth conditions and in response to the differentiating agent retinoic acid, which suggests that their protein products may be functionally interrelated during normal development and oncogenesis.
Tenascin-X: a novel extracellular matrix protein encoded by the human XB gene overlapping P450c21B
- BiologyThe Journal of cell biology

Genetic data suggest that TN-X may be essential for life, a protein that closely resembles tenascin and which is expressed ubiquitously in human fetal tissues and in fetal skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle.
Identification of an endogenous RNA transcribed from the antisense strand of the HFE gene.
- BiologyHuman molecular genetics
- 2001
A ribonuclease A protection assay definitively demonstrated the biological existence of the HFE antisense RNA, which appears to be expressed in all of the tissues and cell lines tested, and in vitro coupled transcription-translation experiments revealed that the H FE expression is decreased by this antisenseRNA, indicating that it may play a critical role in the regulation of the hereditary haemochromatosis gene expression.
The orphan receptor Rev-ErbA alpha activates transcription via a novel response element
- Biology
- 1993
Rev-Erb is a transcriptional activator whose properties differ dramatically from those of classical nuclear hormone receptors, including the TR encoded on the opposite strand of the same genomic locus.
Isolation and Characterization of a cDNA Encoding a Chicken β Thyroid Hormone Receptor
- Biology, Chemistry
- 1991
The chicken TRβ (chTRβ) in vitro translated protein binds T3 with high affinity, and binds both the thyroid hormone response element from the rat growth hormone gene and the Xenopus vitellogenin A2 gene estrogen response element (ERE), similarly to that of the rat TRβ-1.
Isolation of a cDNA encoding human Rev-ErbA alpha: transcription from the noncoding DNA strand of a thyroid hormone receptor gene results in a related protein that does not bind thyroid hormone.
- BiologyDNA and cell biology

The conservation of the bidirectionally transcribed regions of c-erbA alpha-2 and Rev-ErbA alpha in human and rat suggests that this unusual genomic arrangement has an important function, perhaps related to the regulation of gene expression.

In the course of efforts to identify the neurofibromatosis type 1 gene (NF1), three genes were found embedded within an intron of NF1. The cDNA sequence of one of these genes (OMGP) encodes…

It is shown that the erbA-T protein binds specifically to 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine with a dissociation constant of 3.8 +/- 0.2 x 10(-10) M, implying that more than one thyroid hormone receptor exists in humans and that these receptors might have different tissue- and gene-activating specificities.

The apparent close proximity of the c-erbA sequences to the chromosomal breakpoints in these two leukemias suggests a possible role for this oncogene homologue in the development of these neoplasms.
Overlapping transcription units in the dopa decarboxylase region of Drosophila
- BiologyNature

A quite different situation of overlap between the 3′ termini of a pair of convergent transcription units in another region of the Drosophila genome is reported, which raises the possibility that a hybrid molecule involving the two transcripts forms in vivo or that transcription interference occurs, with concomitant regulatory implications.

The finding that the artificial introduction into cells of DNA constructs synthesizing anti-sense RNAs complementary to regions of mRNA transcribed from a chromosomal gene, can inhibit the gene's activity is discussed, presumably by the formation of double-stranded RNA.
Thyroid hormone receptor α isoforms generated by alternative splicing differentially activate myosin HC gene transcription

It is shown here that the rTRα1 receptor is a thyroid hormone-dependent transcriptional factor, which upon binding the T3 responsive element of the α-mHC gene, activates expression of this gene in vivo.

Identification of human thyroid hormone receptor type alpha 2 indicates that two or more forms of thyroid hormone receptors exist in human tissues and may explain the normal variation in thyroid hormone responsiveness of various organs and the selective tissue abnormalities found in the thyroid hormone resistance syndromes.
