The Human Transcription Factors.
Transcription factors (TFs) recognize specific DNA sequences to control chromatin and transcription, forming a complex system that guides expression of the genome. Despite keen interest in understanding how TFs control gene expression, it remains challenging to determine how the precise genomic binding sites of TFs are specified and how TF binding ultimately relates to regulation of transcripti...
متن کاملDNA-Binding Specificities of Human Transcription Factors
Although the proteins that read the gene regulatory code, transcription factors (TFs), have been largely identified, it is not well known which sequences TFs can recognize. We have analyzed the sequence-specific binding of human TFs using high-throughput SELEX and ChIP sequencing. A total of 830 binding profiles were obtained, describing 239 distinctly different binding specificities. The model...
متن کاملOncogenic transcription factors in the human acute leukemias.
Chromosomal translocations in the human acute leukemias rearrange the regulatory and coding regions of a variety of transcription factor genes. The resultant protein products can interfere with regulatory cascades that control the growth, differentiation, and survival of normal blood cell precursors. Support for this interpretation comes from the results of gene manipulation studies in mice, as...
متن کاملEstrogens increase transcription of the human endothelial NO synthase gene: analysis of the transcription factors involved.
Estrogens have been found to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease that has been ascribed in part to an increased expression and/or activity of the vasoprotective endothelial NO synthase (NOS III). Some reports have shown that the level of expression of this constitutive enzyme can be upregulated by estrogens. The current study investigates the molecular mechanism of the NOS III upregu...
متن کاملTranscription syndromes and the role of RNA polymerase II general transcription factors in human disease.
Messenger RNA synthesis is a major site for the regulation of gene expression. Eukaryotic messenger RNA synthesis is catalyzed by multisubunit RNA polymerase II (1–3) and proceeds via multiple stages, which are designated preinitiation, initiation, elongation, and termination and which have come to be referred to collectively as the transcription cycle (Fig. 1). The past decade was a watershed ...
