Control of protein turnover is critical for meiotic progression. Using RiboTag immunoprecipitation, RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation, and luciferase reporter assay, we investigated how rates of mRNA translation, protein synthesis and degradation contribute to the steady state level of Cyclin B1
Enrico Maria Daldello et al.
Development (Cambridge, England), 146(8) (2019-04-07)
Cyclins associate with cyclin-dependent serine/threonine kinase 1 (CDK1) to generate the M phase-promoting factor (MPF) activity essential for progression through mitosis and meiosis. Although cyclin B1 (CCNB1) is required for embryo development, previous studies concluded that CCNB2 is dispensable for

Deleted in azoospermia-like (DAZL) is an RNA-binding protein critical for gamete development. In full-grown oocytes, the DAZL protein increases 4-fold during reentry into the meiotic cell cycle. Here, we have investigated the functional significance of this accumulation at a genome-wide

The Journal of cell biology, 190(2), 197-207 (2010-07-28)
The signaling cascade initiated in response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) has been extensively investigated in interphase cells. Here, we show that mitotic cells treated with DSB-inducing agents activate a "primary" DNA damage response (DDR) comprised of early signaling events
Pasqualino de Antonellis et al.
PloS one, 6(9), e24584-e24584 (2011-09-21)
Through negative regulation of gene expression, microRNAs (miRNAs) can function as oncosuppressors in cancers, and can themselves show altered expression in various tumor types. Here, we have investigated medulloblastoma tumors (MBs), which arise from an early impairment of developmental processes

MEM (Minimum Essential Medium Eagle)

A large selection of MEM formulations. Minimum Essential Medium (MEM), developed by Harry Eagle, is one of the most widely used of all synthetic cell culture media.

Protocols

Powdered Media Preparation Instructions

Powdered media and salt mixtures are extremely hygroscopic and should be protected from atmospheric moisture.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
