Functional telomeres are protected from non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair pathways.
Replication is a critical period for telomeres because of the requirement for reconstitution of functional protected telomere
conformations, a process that involves DNA repair proteins. Using knockdown of DNA-PKcs and Rad51 expression in three different
cell lines, we demonstrate the respective involvement of NHEJ and HR in the formation of telomere aberrations induced by the
G-quadruplex ligand 360A during or after replication. HR contributed to specific chromatid-type aberrations (telomere losses
and doublets) affecting the lagging strand telomeres, whereas DNA-PKcs-dependent NHEJ was responsible for sister telomere
fusions as a direct consequence of G-quadruplex formation and/or stabilization induced by 360A on parental telomere G strands.
NHEJ and HR activation at telomeres altered mitotic progression in treated cells. In particular, NHEJ-mediated sister telomere
fusions were associated with altered metaphase-anaphase transition and anaphase bridges and resulted in cell death during
mitosis or early G1. Collectively, these data elucidate specific molecular and cellular mechanisms triggered by telomere targeting
by the G-quadruplex ligand 360A, leading to cancer cell death. 相似文献

One consequence of the special theory of relativity is that no signal can cause an effect outside the source light cone, the space-time surface on which light rays emanate from the source. Violation of this principle of relativistic causality leads to paradoxes, such as that of an effect preceding its cause. Recent experiments on optical pulse propagation in so-called 'fast-light' media--which are characterized by a wave group velocity upsilon(g) exceeding the vacuum speed of light c or taking on negative values--have led to renewed debate about the definition of the information velocity upsilon(i). One view is that upsilon(i) = upsilon(g) (ref. 4), which would violate causality, while another is that upsilon(i) = c in all situations, which would preserve causality. Here we find that the time to detect information propagating through a fast-light medium is slightly longer than the time required to detect the same information travelling through a vacuum, even though upsilon(g) in the medium vastly exceeds c. Our observations are therefore consistent with relativistic causality and help to resolve the controversies surrounding superluminal pulse propagation. 相似文献

Summary In gerbil adrenal cortex the activity of intramitochondrial NADP-linked isocitric dehydrogenase (IDH) is up to 10-fold greater than the NAD-linked IDH. The NADP-IDH, apparent Km 0.58 mM, Vmax 280 nmoles/min/mg mitochondrial protein, appears to be the major source of reducing equivalents to support adrenal mitochondrial steroid 11B- and 19-hydroxylation in this species. 相似文献

Summary We show that phenotypical variations of rat urinary proteins are either sex-linked (variations at the rho-uroprotein and major urinary protein level) or related to the genetic purity (variations at the -uroprotein level).

To understand a neural circuit requires knowledge of its connectivity. Here we report measurements of functional connectivity between the input and ouput layers of the macaque retina at single-cell resolution and the implications of these for colour vision. Multi-electrode technology was used to record simultaneously from complete populations of the retinal ganglion cell types (midget, parasol and small bistratified) that transmit high-resolution visual signals to the brain. Fine-grained visual stimulation was used to identify the location, type and strength of the functional input of each cone photoreceptor to each ganglion cell. The populations of ON and OFF midget and parasol cells each sampled the complete population of long- and middle-wavelength-sensitive cones. However, only OFF midget cells frequently received strong input from short-wavelength-sensitive cones. ON and OFF midget cells showed a small non-random tendency to selectively sample from either long- or middle-wavelength-sensitive cones to a degree not explained by clumping in the cone mosaic. These measurements reveal computations in a neural circuit at the elementary resolution of individual neurons. 相似文献

Fast and slow myosin in developing muscle fibres. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Slow and fast isoenzymes of myosin coexist in all the fibres of a fast-twitch mammalian muscle during early development. They later become segregated into different populations of fibres. Slow myosin is most abundant when the speed of contraction of the muscle is slow and the fibres are multiply innervated; its synthesis in the majority of the fibres seems to be 'switched off' when the speed of contraction increases and the fibres become innervated by single motoneurones. 相似文献
