The result of sequcencing showed that:the cloned gene contains a large open reading frame (ORF) of 3936 bp and encodes for a protein of 1312 amino acid. According to the result of homologous analysis, the cloned gene is homologous to FLO1 but with 675 bp deletion in the ORF region. The missing part belongs to one of the four repeated sequence family of FLO1. Since the cloned DNA fragment can trigger strong flocculence to non-flocculent strain S.cerevisiae YS58, we concluded that the missing part is not the crutical part for the flocculent ability of the gene.展开更多
端粒长度的维持在肿瘤细胞的永生化过程中起到至关重要的作用。约85%的人体肿瘤细胞通过端粒酶延伸端粒,从而获得持续的增殖能力。另外,15%的人体肿瘤细胞通过端粒替代延伸机制(alternative lengthening of telomeres,ALT)延伸端粒。这...端粒长度的维持在肿瘤细胞的永生化过程中起到至关重要的作用。约85%的人体肿瘤细胞通过端粒酶延伸端粒,从而获得持续的增殖能力。另外,15%的人体肿瘤细胞通过端粒替代延伸机制(alternative lengthening of telomeres,ALT)延伸端粒。这两种机制对于维持肿瘤细胞中端粒的长度具有同等重要的意义。人体端粒由富含鸟嘌呤(G)的DNA重复序列组成,该序列在特定的条件下可以形成G-四链体(G4)的结构。此结构的形成可以从根本上抑制端粒酶和ALT对端粒的延伸而达到抗肿瘤的目的。因此,人体端粒G4-DNA作为抗肿瘤靶点的研究是近年来抗肿瘤研究的重要前沿领域之一。该文重点综述人体端粒G4-DNA稳定剂研发的最新研究进展。展开更多
