ARNT

Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Acronyms, Encyclopedia.

ARNT

A gene on chromosome 1q21 that encodes aryl hydrocarbon receptor, which is involved in inducing several enzymes that participate in xenobiotic metabolism—e.g., of dioxin and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons—resulting in translocation of the ligand-binding subunit to the nucleus.

Molecular pathology
A t(1;12)(q21;p13) translocation, which results in a TEL-ARNT fusion protein, is associated with acute myeloblastic leukemia.

The calibrated RT-PCR showed good intraassay imprecision; the CV (calculated from 10 replicates of a sample) was 7.3%, 6.8%, 8.7%, 6.0%, and 6.9% for AHR, ARNT, CYP1B1, IL-1[beta], and [beta]-ACT, respectively.

The expression of AHR and related genes, expressed as amol mRNA/100 ng of total RNA, was 0.012-0.55 for AHR, 0.07-0.36 for ARNT, 0.02-6.14 for CYP1B1, 0.0150.33 for IL-1[beta], and 378-1940 for [beta]-ACT.

Weighted Deming regression analysis was performed on all data, and the regression coefficient (R), slope (95% confidence interval), and y-intercept (95% confidence interval) for each gene was as follows: for AHR, R = 0.951, slope = 0.90 (0.7-1.05), y-intercept = 0.05 amol (-1.22 to 1.32 amol); for ARNT, R = 0.912, slope = 1.0 (0.7-1.3), y-intercept = -2.09 amol (-6.1 to 1.9 amol); for CYP1B1, R = 0.948, slope = 1.14 (0.9-1.4), y-intercept = -0.22 amol (-2.19 to 1.73 amol); for IL-1[beta], R = 0.967, slope = 1.05 (0.9-1.2), y-intercept = 0.1 amol (-0.53 to 0.73 amol); for [beta]-ACT, R = 0.961, slope = 1.1 (0.9-1.3), y-intercept = -0.37 amol (-1.0 to 0.28 amol).
