Project description:A phosphorylation-dependent endoribonuclease G3BP localizes in cytoplasmic stress granules (SGs). G3BP promotes SG assembly, oligomerizes, binds mRNA, and regulates levels of certain mRNAs. Transcripts bound to G3BP were identified through expression profiling of a total of 12,135 genes by immunoprecipitation (IP) with anti-G3BP or control IgG from S2-013 cells, converting the immunoprecipitated transcripts to cDNA by reverse transcription, and hybridizing these products to cDNA microarrays. Five G3BP-associated transcripts were identified.
Project description:Gene expression profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells with hTERT/E6/E7 transfected MSCs. hTERT may change gene expression in MSCs. Goal was to determine the gene expressions of immortalized MSCs.
