There are numerous lines of evidence to suggest efficiency of the protein degradation machinery in polar species.

  • 18S Rrna Is a Reliable Normalisation Gene for Real Time PCR Based On
    Kuchipudi et al. Virology Journal 2012, 9:230 http://www.virologyj.com/content/9/1/230 METHODOLOGY Open Access 18S rRNA is a reliable normalisation gene for real time PCR based on influenza virus infected cells Suresh V Kuchipudi1*, Meenu Tellabati1, Rahul K Nelli1, Gavin A White2, Belinda Baquero Perez1, Sujith Sebastian1, Marek J Slomka3, Sharon M Brookes3, Ian H Brown3, Stephen P Dunham1 and Kin-Chow Chang1 Abstract Background: One requisite of quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) is to normalise the data with an internal reference gene that is invariant regardless of treatment, such as virus infection. Several studies have found variability in the expression of commonly used housekeeping genes, such as beta-actin (ACTB) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), under different experimental settings. However, ACTB and GAPDH remain widely used in the studies of host gene response to virus infections, including influenza viruses. To date no detailed study has been described that compares the suitability of commonly used housekeeping genes in influenza virus infections. The present study evaluated several commonly used housekeeping genes [ACTB, GAPDH, 18S ribosomal RNA (18S rRNA), ATP synthase, H+ transporting, mitochondrial F1 complex, beta polypeptide (ATP5B) and ATP synthase, H+ transporting, mitochondrial Fo complex, subunit C1 (subunit 9) (ATP5G1)] to identify the most stably expressed gene in human, pig, chicken and duck cells infected with a range of influenza A virus subtypes. Results: The relative expression stability of commonly used housekeeping genes were determined in primary human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs), pig tracheal epithelial cells (PTECs), and chicken and duck primary lung-derived cells infected with five influenza A virus subtypes.

It is known that the expression levels of commonly used reference genes vary considerably under different experimental conditions, and therefore, their use for data normalization is limited. In this study, an unbiased identification of reference genes in Caenorhabditis elegans was performed based on 145 microarray datasets (2296 gene array samples) covering different developmental stages, different tissues, drug treatments, lifestyle, and various stresses. As a result, thirteen housekeeping genes (rps-23, rps-26, rps-27, rps-16, rps-2, rps-4, rps-17, rpl-24.1, rpl-27, rpl-33, rpl-36, rpl-35, and rpl-15) with enhanced stability were comprehensively identified by using six popular normalization algorithms and RankAggreg method.

  • Analysis of the Stability of 70 Housekeeping Genes During Ips Reprogramming Yulia Panina1,2*, Arno Germond1 & Tomonobu M
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Analysis of the stability of 70 housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming Yulia Panina1,2*, Arno Germond1 & Tomonobu M. Watanabe1 Studies on induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells highly rely on the investigation of their gene expression which requires normalization by housekeeping genes. Whether the housekeeping genes are stable during the iPS reprogramming, a transition of cell state known to be associated with profound changes, has been overlooked. In this study we analyzed the expression patterns of the most comprehensive list to date of housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming of a mouse neural stem cell line N31. Our results show that housekeeping genes’ expression fuctuates signifcantly during the iPS reprogramming. Clustering analysis shows that ribosomal genes’ expression is rising, while the expression of cell-specifc genes, such as vimentin (Vim) or elastin (Eln), is decreasing. To ensure the robustness of the obtained data, we performed a correlative analysis of the genes. Overall, all 70 genes analyzed changed the expression more than two-fold during the reprogramming. The scale of this analysis, that takes into account 70 previously known and newly suggested genes, allowed us to choose the most stable of all genes. We highlight the fact of fuctuation of housekeeping genes during iPS reprogramming, and propose that, to ensure robustness of qPCR experiments in iPS cells, housekeeping genes should be used together in combination, and with a prior testing in a specifc line used in each study. We suggest that the longest splice variants of Rpl13a, Rplp1 and Rps18 can be used as a starting point for such initial testing as the most stable candidates.

    Leader in Biomolecular Solutions for Life Science PSMA2 Rabbit mAb Catalog No.: A9182 Recombinant Basic Information Background Catalog No. The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with a highly ordered ring- A9182 shaped 20S core structure. The core structure is composed of 4 rings of 28 non-identical subunits; 2 rings are composed of 7 alpha subunits and 2 rings are composed of 7 beta Observed MW subunits. Proteasomes are distributed throughout eukaryotic cells at a high 26KDa concentration and cleave peptides in an ATP/ubiquitin-dependent process in a non- lysosomal pathway. An essential function of a modified proteasome, the Calculated MW immunoproteasome, is the processing of class I MHC peptides. This gene encodes a 25kDa member of the peptidase T1A family, that is a 20S core alpha subunit.
