12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced gene sequences in human primary diploid fibroblasts and their expression in SV40-transformed fibroblasts. 1985

P Angel, and H J Rahmsdorf, and A Pöting, and C Lücke-Huhle, and P Herrlich

We have isolated cDNA sequences from TPA-treated primary human fibroblasts, which indicate RNA species that are coordinately regulated after treatment of these cells with either ultraviolet light, mitomycin C, the UV-induced factor EPIF, or TPA. The levels of RNA are elevated in Bloom syndrome (cells of two out of three patients). After transformation with SV40 one of the sequences is overexpressed while another one is reduced. Both genes maintain their inducibility by the agents mentioned.

D004247	DNA	A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D012333	RNA, Messenger	RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
