    Description: Pit-1 is a pituitary-specific transcription factor responsible for pituitary development and hormone expression in mammals. Mutations in the gene encoding Pit-1 have been found in two dwarf mouse strains displaying hypoplasia of growth hormone, prolactin, and thyroid-stimulating, hormone-secreting cell types in the anterior pituitary. A point mutation in this gene was identified on one allele in a patient with combined pituitary hormone deficiency. Mutant Pit-1 binds DNA normally but acts as a dominant inhibitor of Pit-1 action in the pituitary.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Radovick, S -- Nations, M -- Du, Y -- Berg, L A -- Weintraub, B D -- Wondisford, F E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 Aug 21;257(5073):1115-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Pediatrics, Rainbow Babies and Childrens Hospital, Cleveland, OH.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1509262" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: B7 delivers a costimulatory signal through CD28, resulting in interleukin-2 secretion and T cell proliferation. Blockade of this pathway results in T cell anergy. The in vivo role of B7 was evaluated with B7-deficient mice. These mice had a 70 percent decrease in costimulation of the response to alloantigen. Despite lacking B7 expression, activated B cells from these mice bound CTLA-4 and GL1 monoclonal antibody, demonstrating that alternative CTLA-4 ligand or ligands exist. These receptors are functionally important because the residual allogenic mixed lymphocyte responses were blocked by CTLA4Ig. Characterization of these CTLA-4 ligands should lead to strategies for manipulating the immune response.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Freeman, G J -- Borriello, F -- Hodes, R J -- Reiser, H -- Hathcock, K S -- Laszlo, G -- McKnight, A J -- Kim, J -- Du, L -- Lombard, D B -- CA 40216/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Nov 5;262(5135):907-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Hematologic Malignancies, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7694362" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The complete nucleotide sequence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosome VIII reveals that it contains 269 predicted or known genes (300 base pairs or larger). Fifty-nine of these genes (22 percent) were previously identified. Of the 210 novel genes, 65 are predicted to encode proteins that are similar to other proteins of known or predicted function. Sixteen genes appear to be relatively recently duplicated. On average, there is one gene approximately every 2 kilobases. Although the coding density and base composition across the chromosome are not uniform, no regular pattern of variation is apparent.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Johnston, M -- Andrews, S -- Brinkman, R -- Cooper, J -- Ding, H -- Dover, J -- Du, Z -- Favello, A -- Fulton, L -- Gattung, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1994 Sep 30;265(5181):2077-82.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Genetics, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8091229" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
