Disruption of the mouse MRF4 gene identifies multiple waves of myogenesis in the myotome [PDF]
MRF4 (herculin/Myf-6) is one of the four member MyoD family of transcription factors identified by their ability to enforce skeletal muscle differentiation upon a wide variety of nonmuscle cell types.

ABSTRACT Efficient nitrogen (N) uptake is critical for crop yield, but soil salinization inhibits plant nitrogen acquisition. In this study, the nitrate (NO3−) transporter gene SsNRT2.5 and its promoter from the halophyte Suaeda salsa was investigated to elucidate the functional role in NO3− transport under salinity and low NO3−–N conditions.

ABSTRACT The basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) transcription factor family regulates plant secondary metabolism, development and stress responses. Although triterpenoids such as betulinic acid (BA), betulin (BT) and oleanolic acid (OA) from Betula platyphylla Suk.

Mechanical Strength: An Unrecognised Target in the Genetic Improvement of Crops
ABSTRACT Leaf angle (LA) is a crucial agronomic trait influencing planting density and crop yield. Previous research highlighted the importance of cellular variations in the ligular region for determining LA, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unclear.

bHLH and bHLH-LZ factor exchange at promoters
Mammalian promoters often contain DNA-elements that can be bound by a number of closely related transcription factors (TFs) that cannot bind to the same DNA-element simultaneously. It is possible that each TF responds to distinct cues, allowing the gene to be activated in response to multiple stimuli.

ABSTRACT High temperatures significantly accelerate the timing of floral transition, namely, bolting and flowering, in lettuce, which results in severe loss of marketable yield. Thus, understanding the genetic regulation of floral transition is of great interest to plant biologists and lettuce breeders.

SlMYB17 Antagonises the SlCBF Pathway to Negatively Regulate Tomato Chilling Tolerance
ABSTRACT Low temperature is a significant environmental constraint, impeding the extensive cultivation of tropical plants. Here, we identify the transcription factor SlMYB17 as an important negative regulator of tomato chilling tolerance. Overexpression of SlMYB17 significantly reduced chilling tolerance, whereas slmyb17 mutants exhibited enhanced ...

MASH1 activates expression of the paired homeodomain transcription factor Phox2a, and couples pan-neuronal and subtype-specific components of autonomic neuronal identity [PDF]
We have investigated the genetic circuitry underlying the determination of neuronal identity, using mammalian peripheral autonomic neurons as a model system.

Sweet Potato Gene Clusters Control Anthocyanin Biosynthesis and Leaf Morphology
ABSTRACT Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) exhibits diversity in pigmentation and leaf morphology, yet the genetic architecture and regulatory organisation underlying these traits remain poorly resolved, particularly with respect to organ‐specific control.
