Then the expression patterns 1) isoform2 and assess its function in mouse testis. Methods: (RT-PCR) was used to determine whether Spinl isoform2 is of the isoform between newborn and adult mice testes were compared by immunoblot analysis. Finally, the diversity of its localization in mice testes at different ages (days 0, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 60) was observed by immunohistochemistry. The localization of the protein in mouse sperm was also investigated by immunofluorescence. Results: The RT-PCR results show that Spinl isoform2 is present in mouse testis. As shown by immunoblot analysis, the isoform was more highly expressed in adult testes compared with newborn testes. Interestingly, Spinl isoform2 did not show up in the cytoplasm of primary spermatocytes until day 14. Also, the protein exists at the tail of the mouse sperm. Conclusion: Spinl isoform2 is a protein expressed highly in adult testis, which might be involved in spermatogenesis and could be necessary for normal sperm motility.展开更多
SPIN1(spindlin 1)是一种组蛋白修饰阅读器蛋白,通过识别组蛋白H3第4位赖氨酸三甲基化(trimethylation of lysine 4 on histone H3 protein subunit,H3K4me3)促进核糖体RNA的表达,从而影响表观遗传的调控,以此发挥其生物学作用。SPIN1...SPIN1(spindlin 1)是一种组蛋白修饰阅读器蛋白,通过识别组蛋白H3第4位赖氨酸三甲基化(trimethylation of lysine 4 on histone H3 protein subunit,H3K4me3)促进核糖体RNA的表达,从而影响表观遗传的调控,以此发挥其生物学作用。SPIN1在多种恶性肿瘤中过表达,可受多种长链非编码RNA(long non-coding RNA,lncRNA)、微RNA(microRNA,miRNA)及环状RNA(circularRNA,circRNA)的负向调控,并可由转录因子腺病毒E2因子1(adenovirus E2 factor 1,E2F1)转录激活,通过Wnt、磷脂酰肌醇3激酶/蛋白激酶B(phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B,PI3K/Akt)、转染过程重排(rearrangement during transfection,RET)因子、鼠双微体基因-p53(murine double minute 2-p53,MDM2-p53)等与肿瘤发生相关的信号通路,促进肿瘤的发生、发展,并与不良预后密切相关。随着对SPIN1的研究越来越深入,发现SPIN1可作为多种恶性肿瘤治疗的潜在靶点。目前已开发出针对SPIN1和H3K4me3间相互作用的抑制剂,以此阻断SPIN1的致癌能力。展开更多

Recent researches also show that mouse Mos/MAPK pathway is tightly related to spindiin phosphorylation. We report that (i) a novel gene encoding a putative human spindlin (SPIN) has been cloned, which is highly homologous to mouse Spin; (ii) tissue expression pattern of SPIN shows that SPIN is highly expressed as a 4.8 kb transcript in ovary, testis, heart, brain, kidney, pancreas, placenta and spleen, also with a specific 2.0 kb transcript in testis, but there is no hybridization band in thymus and small intestine, and (iii) SPIN has been mapped to human chromosome 9q22.1-22.3 by Radiation Hybrid Mapping. This novel gene was registered in GenBank as SPIN with accession number AF087864.展开更多
