additional information | human polynucleotide phosphorylase hPNPaseold-35 is a type I IFN-inducible 3'-5' exoribonuclease, which degrades specific mRNAs and small noncoding RNAs. miR-221, a regulator of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27kip1, displays robust downregulation with ensuing up-regulation of p27kip1 by expression of hPNPaseold-35,which also occurs in multiple human melanoma cells upon IFN-beta treatment | Homo sapiens | ? | - |

malfunction | inhibition of the enzyme by shRNA or stable overexpression of miR-221 protects melanoma cells from IFN-beta-mediated growth inhibition | Homo sapiens |
additional information | human melanoma cells infected with an adenovirus expressing hPNPaseold-35 and are used for identification of miRNAs differentially and specifically regulated by hPNPaseold-35. Overexpression of miR-221 in HO-1 cells confers resistance to IFN-beta-mediated growth arrest | Homo sapiens |
