英文摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant)
In C. elegans post-embryonic developmental timing is regulated by heterochronic
genes. The temporal downregulation of lin-28 is necessary for the execution of
the larval stage 3 (L3) program, a novel pathway independent of lin-4 involving
the nuclear hormone receptor daf-12 acts to repress lin-28. The aims of this
proposal are to determine the molecular mechanism of lin-4-independent
repression (LIR) of lin-28 and to identify genes essential for this timing
mechanism. First, the hypothesis will be tested that daf-12 translationally
represses lin-28 and thereby specifies entry into the L3 stage. To test this, I
will analyze lin-28 mRNA and protein levels during larval development in
wildtype and daf-12 mutant genotypes. Secondly, the hypothesis will be tested
that elements in the 3' UTR of lin-28 are sufficient for LIR-dependent
downregulation of lin-28 and are required for entry into L3. GFP reporter
constructs with intact or truncated lin-28 3' UTR sequences will be used to
test sufficiency and identify specific LIR elements. Lastly, a genetic screen
will be performed to identify new components of the LIR pathway. This proposal
has the exciting potential to identify new small temporal RNAs regulators of
developmental timing, which is emerging as a common mode of regulation from
mouse to man.
