Abstract:Nuclear hormone receptor is involved in transcription regulation and many important cellular processes including development and metabolism. However, the role of nuclear hormone receptor in DNA damage-induced apoptosis remains elusive. Here we reported that RNAi of nhr-14, which was thought to be an estrogenic hormone receptor in Caenorhabditis elegans, inhibited DNA damage-induced apoptosis in prmt-5(gk357), a C. elegans homolog of mammalian type II arginine methyltransferase PRMT5, after ionizing radiation. … Show more
