Suppression of the neoplastic phenotype by replacement of the Tsc2 gene in Eker rat renal carcinoma cells.

Abstract:

:The hereditary renal carcinoma (RC) in the rat, originally reported by R. Eker in 1954, is an excellent example of a Mendelian dominantly inherited predisposition to a specific cancer in an experimental animal. Recently, we have identified a germline mutation of the sclerosis (Tsc2) gene in the Eker rat (Nature Genetics 9, 70-74, 1995), suggested to be a novel tumor suppressor gene, fitting Knudson's two-hit hypothesis. In this study, the effect of wild-type Tsc2 gene expression in Eker RC cells was tested using a tetracycline-responsive promoter system. Transfection and expression of a exogenous Tsc2 gene affected both cell morphology and growth rate. This demonstration of suppression of the neoplastic phenotype provides direct evidence for an essential role of the Tsc2 gene in tumorigenesis.

  • The transmembrane nucleoporin NDC1 is required for targeting of ALADIN to nuclear pore complexes.

    abstract::NDC1 is a transmembrane nucleoporin that is required for NPC assembly and nucleocytoplasmic transport. We show here that NDC1 directly interacts with the nucleoporin ALADIN, mutations of which are responsible for triple-A syndrome, and that this interaction is required for targeting of ALADIN to nuclear pore complexes...
