A novel isoform of myosin 18A (Myo18Aγ) is an essential sarcomeric protein in mouse heart
2019, Journal of Biological ChemistryCitation Excerpt :Restriction and DNA-modifying enzymes (Fermentas, Thermo Fisher Scientific (Breda, The Netherlands) or New England Biolabs, Bioké (Leiden, The Netherlands)) and oligodeoxyribonucleotides (Sigma-Aldrich) were used, following the manufacturer's instructions. For live sarcomeric Z-line imaging, we constructed an expression plasmid named pLV.HsUBC.mScarlet-I∼MmCypher1c, in which the coding sequence of the murine Cypher 1c protein (37) was preceded by a human ubiquitin C gene promoter (38) and extended at the N terminus with the coding sequence of mScarlet-I (39) (AddGene plasmid number 85044). For live-cell imaging of the sarcomeric A-band, the expression plasmid pLV.HsUBC.RnMyl2∼mScarlet.WHVoPRE was made.
Dynamic transcription of ubiquitin genes under basal and stressful conditions and new insights into the multiple UBC transcript variants
2015, GeneCitation Excerpt :To date, the heat-triggered induction of the Ub-ribosomal fusion genes has not been documented. From a molecular point of view, this can be explained by the presence of heat shock elements (HSEs) in the promoters of polyubiquitin genes UBB and UBC, but not of monoubiquitin genes RPS27A and UBA52 (Vihervaara et al., 2013; Nenoi et al., 1996). Heat shock factors (HSFs) binding to HSEs are the master regulators of transcription under protein damaging stress conditions and HSF1/2-driven induction of polyubiquitin genes, which is a rapid means to increase Ub levels, has recently been addressed (Vihervaara et al., 2013; Crinelli, submitted paper).
Preclinical safety and efficacy of an anti-HIV-1 lentiviral vector containing a short hairpin RNA to CCR5 and the C46 fusion inhibitor
2014, Molecular Therapy Methods and Clinical DevelopmentCitation Excerpt :The stability of the delivered LVsh5/C46 vector into target cells was confirmed by southern blot and sequencing analyses, with no unforeseen alterations to the genetic elements of LVsh5/C46. Splicing of the 812 bp intron within the 5′ UTR of the human UbC promoter was well documented previously.58,59 In the present study, the spliced UbC promoter was found to be sufficient to drive expression of C46 peptide to a detectable level and was effective in inhibiting HIV-1 infection.
Activity of different vaccine-associated promoter elements in human dendritic cells

2006, Molecular TherapyCitation Excerpt :The NruI site precedes the DMD ORF and lies immediately downstream of the simian virus 40 pA of the DsRedexpression unit. The UBC promoter fragment was amplified from pUbCR#1 [26] (a kind gift from M. Nenoi) by PCR using the Platinum TaqDNA polymerase High Fidelity enzyme mixture (Invitrogen) together with primers hUbiCR (5′ -CGTAAGCTTGTCTAACAAAAAAGCCAAAAACGG-3′) and M13F (5′-GACGTTGTAAAACGACGGCCAGT-3′). The amplified DNA was digested with HindIII (Fermentas) and blunt-ended with the Klenow fragment (Fermentas).
