The Impact of the Long-Distance Transport of a BEL1-Like Messenger RNA on Development [PDF]
BEL1- and KNOTTED1-type proteins are transcription factors from the three-amino-loop-extension superclass that interact in a tandem complex to regulate the expression of target genes.

The tomato mars1/rough mutant displays enhanced root regeneration and rough fruits due to ectopic cell proliferation. The causal gene encodes a lysine‐specific histone demethylase that normally maintains gene silencing. Its loss alters histone methylation, upregulating several genes, including those B‐type cyclins involved in tissue‐specific cellular ...

Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are widespread plant symbionts that enhance nutrient acquisition and influence ecosystem productivity. Previous chromosome‐level assemblies of the model species Rhizophagus irregularis revealed a two‐compartment genome architecture (active A and repressed B chromatin compartments), yet its conservation across ...

Isolation and characterization of the chicken homeodomain protein AKR
Expression of the avian apoVLDLII gene is liver specific and completely dependent on estrogen. Previous analyses of protein binding sites in the apoVLDLII promoter revealed interactions between liver-enriched and ubiquitous factors at a location, site F', between nucleotides -229 and -260 relative to the major transcriptional start site.

Investigation of Interactions between Homeodomain Proteins and DNA [PDF]
In this work spectroscopic and transient-kinetic methods were applied to investigate homeodomain-DNA interactions. The analysis of intrinsic fluorescence and circular dichroism spectra of Bicoid (Bcd), Ultrabithorax (Ubx) and Engrailed (En) homeodomains revealed that the binding of either protein to 15 bp oligonucleotides induces changes in structure ...

A specific box switches the cell fate determining activity of XOTX2 and XOTX5b in the
Background Otx genes, orthologues of the Drosophila orthodenticle gene (otd), play crucial roles in vertebrate brain development. In the Xenopus eye, Xotx2 and Xotx5b promote bipolar and photoreceptor cell fates, respectively.

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.

HOXD8 exerts a tumor-suppressing role in colorectal cancer as an apoptotic inducer [PDF]
Homeobox (HOX) genes are conserved transcription factors which determine the anterior-posterior body axis patterning. HOXD8 is a member of HOX genes deregulated in several tumors such as lung carcinoma, neuroblastoma, glioma and colorectal cancer (CRC ...

ABSTRACT Mentha spicata L. (spearmint) is a high‐value aromatic and medicinal species, whose productivity is strongly affected by water deficit. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying drought acclimation in this mint remain largely unexplored. Thus, here, we investigated the microRNA‐mediated regulatory processes triggered in M.
