MDS1 and EVI1 complex locus protein EVI1 (MECOM) also known as ecotropic virus integration site 1 protein homolog (EVI-1) or positive regulatory domain zinc finger protein 3 (PRDM3) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''MECOM'' gene. EVI1 was first identified as a common retroviral integration site in AKXD murine myeloid tumors. It has since been identified in a plethora of other organisms, and seems to play a relatively conserved developmental role in embryogenesis. EVI1 is a nuclear transcription factor involved in many signaling pathways for both coexpression and coactivation of cell cycle genes. Gene structure The EVI1 gene is located in the human genome on chromosome 3 (3q26.2). The gene spans 60 kilobases and encodes 16 exons, 10 of which are protein-coding. The first in-frame ATG start codon is in exon 3. mRNA A large number of transcript variations exist, encoding different isoforms or chimeric proteins. Some of the most common ones are: * EVI_1a, EVI_1b, EVI_1c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Private Equity Firm
A private equity firm is an investment management company that provides financial backing and makes investments in the private equity of startup or operating companies through a variety of loosely affiliated investment strategies including leveraged buyout, venture capital, and growth capital.

Private equity firms, with their investors, will acquire a controlling or substantial minority position in a company and then look to maximize the value of that investment.

Wegener (company)
Koninklijke Wegener NV was a Dutch publisher of newspapers. It was the largest publisher of daily regional newspapers, free local newspapers and special interest magazines in the Netherlands. It also sold internet products and graphical products. The company ceased to exist when it was acquired by Belgian media company De Persgroep in 2015.

Rzeczpospolita (newspaper)
''Rzeczpospolita'' () is a Polish nationwide daily economic and legal newspaper, published by Gremi Media. Established in 1920, ''Rzeczpospolita'' was originally founded as a daily newspaper of the conservative Christian National Party during interwar Poland.

In the aftermath of World War II, as Poland became a Soviet satellite state, the newspaper came under government control. Following the 1989 political revolutions across Europe and the subsequent dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the new democratically elected government relinquished its editorial oversight and ownership of ''Rzeczpospolita'', contributing to the end of media censorship in communist Poland and ushering in a new era of independent press. In 2016, ''Rzeczpospolita'' had a circulation of 274,00 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Until the late 1950s, the circulation increased to 450,000 copies. When '' Bild Zeitung'' was brought out by the Axel Springer publishing house as a second tabloid serving Hamburg, the circulation of the ''Hamburger Morgenpost'' declined steadily.

The SPD sold the newspaper following financial problems in the mid-1970s. After having several owners, the Gruner + Jahr publishing company ...
