Analysis of global changes in gene expression induced by human polynucleotide phosphorylase (hPNPase(old-35)).

ABSTRACT: As a strategy to identify gene expression changes affected by human polynucleotide phosphorylase (hPNPase(old-35)), we performed gene expression analysis of HeLa cells in which hPNPase(old-35) was overexpressed. The observed changes were then compared to those of HO-1 melanoma cells in which hPNPase(old-35) was stably knocked down. Through this analysis, 90 transcripts, which positively or negatively correlated with hPNPase(old-35) expression, were identified. The majority of these genes were associated with cell communication, cell cycle, and chromosomal organization gene ontology categories. For a number of these genes, the positive or negative correlations with hPNPase(old-35) expression were consistent with transcriptional data extracted from the TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) expressi
