Mechanisms of Binding Specificity among bHLH Transcription Factors [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 The transcriptome of every cell is orchestrated by the complex network of interaction between transcription factors (TFs) and their binding sites on DNA. Disruption of this network can result in many forms of organism malfunction but also can be the substrate of positive natural selection.

Context dependence of proneural bHLH proteins [PDF]
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2008 A key point in neural development is the commitment of progenitor cells to a specific neural fate. In all animals studied, proneural proteins - transcription factors of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family - are central to this process. The function of these factors is strongly influenced by the spatial and temporal context in which they are ...

DNA bending by bHLH charge variants [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2006 We wish to understand the role of electrostatics in DNA stiffness and bending. The DNA charge collapse model suggests that mutual electrostatic repulsions between neighboring phosphates significantly contribute to DNA stiffness. According to this model, placement of fixed charges near the negatively charged DNA surface should induce bending through ...

A bHLH Code for Cardiac Morphogenesis [PDF]
Pediatric Cardiology, 2009 Cell specification and differentiation of cardiomyocytes from mesodermal precursors is orchestrated by epigenetic and transcriptional inputs throughout heart formation. Of the many transcription factor super families that play a role in this process, the basic Helix-loop Helix (bHLH) family of proteins is well represented.

Regulation of the Drosophila ID protein Extra macrochaetae by proneural dimerization partners
eLife, 2018 Proneural bHLH proteins are transcriptional regulators of neural fate specification. Extra macrochaetae (Emc) forms inactive heterodimers with both proneural bHLH proteins and their bHLH partners (represented in Drosophila by Daughterless).
