ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of Ro60 on migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma A 549 cells. Methods We knocked down Ro60 and analyzed the ability of migration and invasion of A 549 cells.Quantitative real time ( RT)-PCR and Western blotting were performed to detect mRNA and protein levels of selected molecules associated with migration and invasion of neoplasm .Results When Ro60 was downregulated , the migration and invasion of A 549 cells decreased markedly.Meanwhile,the mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)9,c-Src etc was observably reduced.Furthermore, downregulation of Ro60 diminished the expression of Src protein and the activation of MMP-9 protein.Conclusion Downregulation of Ro60 inhibits migration and invasion of A549 cells by regulating Src protein and activating MMP-9 protein.
ABSTRACT
Objective To conduct a pilot study on genome-wide in vivo protein-RNA interactions in E.coli.Methods Bacterial lysate was treated with RNase before the RNA fragments protected by proteins were extracted from treated lysate and used to construct cDNA library that was applied to high-throughput sequencing .Finally, the transcripts bound by proteins were obtained by bioinformatics analysis .Results A total of 3193 transcripts were obtained , including 2234 mRNAs, 47 sRNAs, 39 tRNAs, 11 rRNAs, and 862 intergenic regions .Conclusion Some information of transcripts interacting with proteins in E.coli is acquired , which will facilitate further studies of protein-RNA interactions .
