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.

A bHLH transcription factor, SlbHLH96, promotes drought tolerance in tomato. [PDF]

Hortic Res, 2022
Abstract Drought stress caused by water deficit reduces plant productivity in many regions of the world. In plants, basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) transcription factors regulate a wide range of cellular activities related to growth, development and stress response; however, the role of tomato SlbHLHs in drought stress responses remains ...

RFP represses transcriptional activation by bHLH transcription factors [PDF]

Oncogene, 2005
Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors play a pivotal role in the regulation of tumorigenesis, and also in a wide range of other developmental processes in diverse species from yeast to humans. Here we demonstrate for the first time that Ret finger protein (RFP), a member of the TRIM family of proteins initially identified as a recombined ...

bHLH-Orange Transcription Factors in Development and Cancer [PDF]

Translational Oncogenomics, 2007
Basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins are a large superfamily of transcription factors that play critical roles in many physiological processes including cellular differentiation, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Based on structural and phylogenetic analysis, mammalian bHLH-Orange (bHLH-O) proteins, which constitute the repressor family of bHLH ...

TbMYC4A Is a Candidate Gene Controlling the Blue Aleurone Trait in a Wheat-Triticum boeoticum Substitution Line

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Triticum boeoticum Boiss (AbAb, 2n = 2x = 14) is one of the sources of the blue grain trait controlled by blue aleurone layer 2 (Ba2). However, the underlying genes have not been cloned.

The bHLH Transcription Factor OsbHLH057 Regulates Iron Homeostasis in Rice. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2022
Many basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) transcription factors precisely regulate the expression of Fe uptake and translocation genes to control iron (Fe) homeostasis, as both Fe deficiency and toxicity impair plant growth and development. In rice, three clade IVc bHLH transcription factors have been characterised as positively regulating Fe-deficiency ...

Transcription factors and molecular markers revealed asymmetric contributions between allotetraploid Upland cotton and its two diploid ancestors [PDF]

, 2020
Three Gossypium species have been used to breed cotton as they vary in their fiber production and resistance to stresses. Transcription factors (TFs) mostly are present in different copies or isoforms by which they conduct their regulation.

Diverse role of basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) transcription factor superfamily genes in the fleshy fruit-bearing plant species

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2022
The basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) superfamily is the most widespread family of transcription factors in eukaryotic organisms, which can activate the expression of genes by interacting with specific promoters in the genes.
