Transcription of several families of moderately repeated sequences, conserved through the evolution of vertebrates, has been studied in different types of pigeon, chicken and mouse cells. It is shown both by hybridization with isolated RNA and by in situ hybridization that the families of repeats, dispersed in bird genomes and organized in clusters, are differentially expressed in pigeon erythroid cells with different degrees of specialization; in addition, they are transcribed in different types of chick embryo cells and on lampbrush chromosomes in chicken oocytes. Sequences homologous to these repeats were transcribed in different types of newborn mouse cells. Another family of conservative moderate repeats (family T1) dispersed in the mouse genome was also transcribed in a large variety of tissues in both new-born mice and chick embryos. A comparison of structural and transcription features of conservative moderate repeats represented in genomes of the number of vertebrates made it possible to regard them as "housekeeping" elements. The conservation in the evolution as well as the character of transcription of similar genome elements testify to their important role in the organism functioning at different stages of development.

The main goal of this investigation is to find out how solute carrier family 27 member 3 (SLC27A3) is expressed in the lung tissue of mice with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and how it relates to lung function. A model of COPD was established by exposing organisms to cigarette smoke, followed by investigating the role of SLC27A3 in COPD through experiments conducted both in living organisms and in laboratory settings. Knockout mice lacking SLC27A3 were produced through siRNA transfection to investigate lung function and inflammatory response, using methods such as hematoxylin-eosin staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

A new pipeline SPICE identifies novel JUN-IKZF1 composite elements.

Laboratory of Molecular Immunology, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, NIH, Bethesda, United States.

Transcription factor partners can cooperatively bind to DNA composite elements to augment gene transcription. Here, we report a novel protein-DNA binding screening pipeline, termed Spacing Preference Identification of Composite Elements (SPICE), that can systematically predict protein binding partners and DNA motif spacing preferences. Using SPICE, we successfully identified known composite elements, such as AP1-IRF composite elements (AICEs) and STAT5 tetramers, and also uncovered several novel binding partners, including JUN-IKZF1 composite elements.
