New techniques, such as the multiplication of the required gene area in a test tube as well as RNase protection assays have been used successfully to pick out about 80-90% of the mutations which occur in one gene area and cause the disease of this gene area. The increased specificity and...
Answer to: How would you test a hypothesis that a genetic condition, like cancer, is due to an error (or mistake) in transcription and translation?...

The polymerase enzyme is essential for DNA replication, transcription, and repair. It is a complex protein consisting of two subunits: the large subunit, which contains the active site, and the small subunit, which binds to the large subunit through its carboxyl-terminal domain....
Loss of PRMT5’s methylation function leads to defects in RNA splicing, gene expression and genome integrity, eventually leading to cancer cell death. PRMT5-based synthetic lethality has the potential to be useful in a variety of tumour types including breast, lung and gastric cancers and B cel...
s often too much for a lot of people. So, you know, you may only need 800 micrograms of the methylfolate. You may do well with a thousand, you may do well with 2,000 or 3,000, but just saying well, I’ve got the defect and now I need to take 5,000 or even 10,000, you...
2C,D). This result suggests that the enzymatic activity of caspase-8 was required for CD95 to engage the STAT1 pathway. Consistently, we could not correct the defect in the caspase-8 k.o. cells by overexpressing a catalytically inactive caspase-8 gene (Fig. S3B,C). Figure 2 Effect of...
It is also tempting to speculate that the rarity of T-ALL in DS is also possibly due to the block in the NFAT pathway. The major T-cell defect has been recently shown to be in decreased thymic output of new T cells, as reflected by reduced T-cell receptor excision circles.51 These ...
For example, they can grow in serum and LIF or 2i condition (a recently establish culture condition for ES cells containing two kinase inhibitors [35], described later in this article), and their gene expression profiles and DNA methylation status are similar to those of ES cells [36]. Na...
Using the same assays, this cellular system allowed to test the competition between Meis1 and Prep1 and delineate a possible mechanism. The growth in mice of Prep1i/i MEFs overexpressing Meis1, as well as soft agar colony formation, was drastically reduced when Prep1 was re-introduced. ...
