Opis:
Ionizing radiation activates a large variety of intracellular mechanisms responsible for maintaining appropriate cell functionality or activation of apoptosis which eliminates damaged cells from the population. The mechanism of such induced cellular death is widely used in radiotherapy in order to eliminate cancer cells, although in some cases it is highly limited by increased cellular radio-resistance due to aberrations in molecular regulation mechanisms of malignant cells. Despite the positive correlation between the radiation dose and the number of apoptotic cancer cells, radiation has to be limited because of extensive side effects. Therefore, additional control signals whose role will be to maximize the cancer cells death-ratio while minimizing the radiation dose and by that the potential side effects are worth considering. In this work we present the results of simulation studies showing possibilities of single gene regulation by small interfering RNA (siRNA) that can increase radio-sensitivity of malignant cells showing aberrations in the p53 signaling pathway, responsible for DNA damage-dependant apoptosis. By blocking the production of the p53 inhibitor Mdm2, radiation treated cancer cells are pushed into the apoptotic state on a level normally achievable only with high radiation doses. The presented approach, based on a simulation study originating from experimentally validated regulatory events, concerns one of the basic problems of radiotherapy dosage limitations, which, as will be shown, can be partially avoided by using the appropriate siRNA based control mechanism.

Opis:
Ab initio methods of DNA regulatory sequence region prediction known as transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) are a very big challenge to modern bioinformatics. Although the currently available methods are not perfect they are fairly reliable and can be used to search for new potential protein-DNA interaction sites. The biggest problem of ab initio approaches is the very high false positive rate of predicted sites which results mainly from the fact that TFBS are very short and highly degenerate. Because of that they can occur by chance every few hundred bases making the task of computational prediction extremely difficult if one aims to reduce the high false positive rate keeping highest possible sensitivity to predict biologically meaningful sequence regions. In this work we present a new application that can be used to predict TFBS regions in very large datasets based on position weight matrix models (PWM’s) using one of the most popular prediction methods. The presented application was used to predict the concentration of TFBS in a set of nearly 2.2 thousand unique sequences of human gene promoter regions. The study revealed that the concentration of TFBS further than 1kbp from the transcription initiation site is constant but it decreases rapidly while getting closer to the transcription initiation site. The decreasing TFBS concentration in the vicinity of genes might result from evolutionary selection which keeps only sites responsible for interactions with proteins being part of a specific regulatory mechanism leading to cells survival.
