Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A novel GAPDH-mediated gene regulatory mechanism controlling the stability of ccn2 mRNA during hypoxia is uncovered. The precise regulatory mechanism of the degradation of ccn2 mRNA by the interaction among the ccn2 3'-UTR and GAPDH was identified. The observed redox regulation would supposedly be important for switching ccn2 gene expression upon the exposure to hypoxic or oxidative stress.
