Daystar University

Daystar is a Christian liberal arts university in Nairobi, Kenya.

Daystar's original campus is close to Nairobi city centre, but there was no room to expand at that location. Therefore, in the last decade a new campus has been built at Athi River, some 40 km to the south-east of the city, on the Mombasa Road. This development has been largely as a result of work of the vice chancellor of Daystar, Professor S. Talitwala.

History

In 1967, Dr. Donald K. Smith, an American missionary, and Motsoko Pheko, an African journalist, founded Daystar Communications. Daystar sought to improve techniques used in communicating the message of Christ, to analyze the target audience of these messages, and to design more effective communication strategies for reaching such audiences.

Daystar began short-term training programs in 1971 to assist church leaders in developing cross-cultural communication strategies. It now has an enrollment over more than 4,400 students in 15 undergraduate majors, 7 masters programs, and 2 PhD. programs.

Daystar (TV network)

Daystar (formerly known as the Daystar Television Network) is an American evangelical Christian-based religious broadcast television network that is owned by Word of God Fellowship. Its founders are Marcus Lamb and his wife, Joni Lamb. The network is headquartered near the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex in Bedford, Texas.

History

Daystar's roots can be traced back to 1993, when Marcus Lamb and his Word of God Fellowship ministry purchased KMPX (channel 29), a formerly defunct UHF station in Dallas, Texas, broadcasting Christian programming. Lamb is a Georgia native who first began preaching at age 15 and finished Magna Cum Laude from Lee College (now Lee University) at age 19. In 1982, he married Joni Trammel, and together they began to travel the United States, preaching in churches, conventions, and crusades.

In 1984, the two moved to Montgomery, Alabama to launch a television station. In less than a year, WMCF-TV (channel 45) became the first full-power Christian television station in the state. The Lambs built the station for the next five years, and in 1990 sold it to the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). They moved to Dallas, Texas, where, in 1993, the Lambs launched their first station in the Dallas market. They ran channel 29 for three years. Then, in 1996, with a large contribution from Kenneth Copeland Ministries, the Lambs purchased a station in Colorado, officially turning their television ministry into a network. In August 1997, the small staff moved into a 32,000-square-foot (3,000 m²) facility that included production studios; Daystar was officially launched on December 31, 1997.

Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src

Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Src, also known as proto-oncogene c-Src or simply c-Src , is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase protein that in humans is encoded by the SRC gene. This protein phosphorylates specific tyrosine residues in other proteins. An elevated level of activity of c-Src tyrosine kinase is suggested to be linked to cancer progression by promoting other signals. c-Src includes an SH2 domain, an SH3 domain, and a tyrosine kinase domain.

c-Src stands for "cellular Src kinase" and should not be confused with "C-terminal Src kinase" (CSK) which is an enzyme which phosphorylates c-Src at its C-terminus and provides negative regulation of Src's enzymatic activity. c-Src is a widely studied member of non-receptor tyrosine kinases which are not associated with a cell-surface receptor.

Src (pronounced "sarc" as it is short for sarcoma) is a proto-oncogene encoding a tyrosine kinase originally discovered by J. Michael Bishop and Harold E. Varmus, for which they were awarded the 1989 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. It belongs to a family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases called Src family kinases.

Nuclear receptor coactivator 2

The nuclear receptor coactivator 2 also known as NCoA-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NCOA2 gene. NCoA-2 is also frequently called glucocorticoid receptor-interacting protein 1 (GRIP1), steroid receptor coactivator-2 (SRC-2), or transcriptional mediators/intermediary factor 2 (TIF2).

Function

NCoA-2 is a transcriptional coregulatory protein that contains several nuclear receptor interacting domains and an intrinsic histone acetyltransferase activity. NCOA2 is recruited to DNA promotion sites by ligand-activated nuclear receptors. NCOA2 in turn acetylates histones, which makes downstream DNA more accessible to transcription. Hence, NCOA2 assists nuclear receptors in the upregulation of DNA expression.

GRIP1 is a transcriptional co-activator of the glucocorticoid receptor and interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1).
