Rather than coding for a protein, as about half of known genes do, the newly discovered gene regulates the assembly of an RNA molecule that ultimately affects cell migration to critical brain areas before birth, reports a team led by molecular biologist David Haussler of the University of California, Santa Cruz. C-myc is believed to regulate the many downstream genes that produce the pathology of restenosis, including cell migration and adhesion, collagen formation, secretion of extra-cellular matrix, and cell proliferation. However, there was a 50% decrease in intestinal cell proliferation and a 20% decrease in cell migration associated with the high genistein dose. |
