Outline of Final Research Achievements

Degraded transcript (referred to as deGene) may trigger the genetic compensation response (GCR), potentially leading to an increase in the transcriptional expression of sequence-similar adapting genes (adGene). In this study, we aimed to predict gene pairs involved in GCR in human cells using RNA-seq data. From the knockdown data of multiple RNA degradation factors, we identified hundreds of deGene-adGene pairs, with little overlap suggested between different datasets. These results provide new insights into the complex dynamics of gene expression regulation in human cells.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

この研究は、特に遺伝的補償応答(GCR)の役割に焦点を当て、ヒト細胞における遺伝子発現調節の複雑なダイナミクスについての理解を深める可能性があります。GCRに関与する数百の遺伝子ペアを特定することで、遺伝子調節を理解し、可能ならば治療目的で操作するための新たな途が開かれます。これは、遺伝性疾患や病気の治療に広範な影響を及ぼす可能性があり、社会の健康と福祉に寄与することになります。
