Insulin potentiates the transactivation potency of the glucocorticoid receptor.

abstract：:Accurate cDNA data is useful to validate gene structures in a genome. We sequenced 35189 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) obtained from the highly destructive rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea. Our custom-made computational programs mapped these ESTs on the M. grisea genome sequence, and reconstructed gene structure...

abstract：:Yeast genes involved in thiamin pyrophosphate (TPP) synthesis are transcriptionally induced in response to thiamin starvation. In this system, three proteins (Thi2p, Thi3p, and Pdc2p) act as positive regulatory factors. Thi3p is a TPP-binding protein and upregulates THI genes expression when TPP is not bound. We found...
