Gene regulation is mediated by site-specific DNA-binding proteins or transcription factors (TFs), which form protein complexes at regulatory loci either to activate or repress the expression of a target gene. The study of the dynamic properties of these re ...
BACKGROUND: To understand cancer-related modifications to transcriptional programs requires detailed knowledge about the activation of signal-transduction pathways and gene expression programs. To investigate the mechanisms of target gene regulation by hum ...
DNA-binding proteins mediate a variety of crucial molecular functions, such as transcriptional regulation and chromosome maintenance, replication and repair, which in turn control cell division and differentiation. The roles of these proteins in disease ar ...
Transcription factor-DNA interactions are life sustaining and therefore the subject of intensive research. In spite of vast effort, quantitative in vivo studies of the molecular mechanisms underlying these fundamental interactions remain challenging. In th ...
Tightly regulated gene expression systems represent invaluable tools for studying gene function and for the validation of drug targets in bacteria. While several regulated bacterial promoters have been characterized, few of them have been successfully used ...
Chromatin structure and its impact on transcriptional activity represent one of the major revolutions in the biomedical field over the passed decade. The implications concern as much fundamental as clinically-oriented research; diseases and therapeutical s ...
Snail-type transcription factors (TFs) are found in numerous metazoan organisms and function in a plethora of cellular and developmental processes including mesoderm and neuronal development, apoptosis and cancer. So far, Snail-type TFs are exclusively kno ...
Telomeric repeat-containing RNA (TERRA) has been implicated in the control of heterochromatin and telomerase. We demonstrate that yeast TERRA is regulated by telomere-binding proteins in a chromosome-end-specific manner that is dependent on subtelomeric re ...
Flagellar motility is an important process for bacterial survival. It allows bacteria to move to aquire nutrients or to retreat from unfavorable environments. In the Gram-positive bacterium Listeria monocytogenes, flagellar motility is a temperature-depend ...
Yeast one-hybrid (Y1H) assays provide a gene-centered method for the identification of interactions between gene promoters and regulatory transcription factors (TFs). To date, Y1H assays have involved library screens that are relatively expensive and labor ...
