Notch1 deficiency results in defective induction of EMT. Very few migrating cells are seen and these lack mesenchymal morphology. [ 91 ] Notch may regulate this process by activating matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) expression, or by inhibiting vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin expression in the AV canal endocardium [ 92 ] while suppressing ...

Notch 1 is a single ...
Lowered Notch1 expression resulted in no tadpole tail regeneration, and induced Notch1 expression was able to partially rescue tail regeneration in the form of the notochord and spinal cord (but very little musculature.) [10] Moreover, Wnt/Beta-catenin activation has shown promising results in its involvement with dedifferentiation.
Drosophila contain a single Notch protein, C.elegans contain two redundant notch paralogs, Lin-12 [25] and GLP-1, [18] [26] and humans have four Notch variants, Notch 1-4. . Although variations exist between homologs, there are a set of highly conserved structures found in all Notch family p
JAG1 was first identified as a ligand that was able to activate notch receptors when the rat gene Jagged encoding a protein homolog was cloned in 1995. [5] [6] The structure of the JAG1 protein includes a small intracellular component, a transmembrane motif, proceeded by an extracellular region containing a cystine-rich region, 16 EGF-like repeats, a DSL domain, and finally a signal peptide ...
Nod gene expression is induced by the presence of certain flavonoids in the soil, which are secreted by the plant and act as an attractant to bacteria and induce Nod factor production. Flavonoids activate NodD, a LysR family transcription factor, which binds to the nod box and initiates the transcription of the nod genes which encode the ...
An expression vector, otherwise known as an expression construct, is usually a plasmid or virus designed for gene expression in cells. The vector is used to introduce a specific gene into a target cell, and can commandeer the cell's mechanism for protein synthesis to produce the protein encoded by the gene.
In plant immunology, the hypersensitive response (HR) is a mechanism used by plants to prevent the spread of infection by microbial pathogens.HR is characterized by the rapid death of cells in the local region surrounding an infection and it serves to restrict the growth and spread of pathogens to other parts of the plant.
