LITERATURE
gene AtSPMS is inducible by acute salt stress and abscisic acid
-
knockdown of the MYO5A gene reduces the expression of mRNA coding for spermine synthase. The amount of this transcript is also reduced in cells derived from a patient with Griscelli syndrome type 1. This suggests that, in addition to a direct physical interaction between the two proteins, myosin Va also modulates the transcription of the spermine synthase gene
MYO5A knockdown decreases the expression of spermine synthase gene and renders the distribution of spermine synthase protein diffuse, supporting a role for MyoVa in spermine synthase expression and targeting
spermine synthase is overexpressed in colorectal cancer
the gene expression is quickly induced by cold stress
