Promoter keyholes enable specific and persistent multi-gene expression programs in primary T cells without genome modification [PDF]
Non-invasive epigenome editing is a promising strategy for engineering gene expression programs, yet potency, specificity, and persistence remain challenging.

Role of transcription factors in metastasis of breast cancer
Metastasis causes a majority of deaths in breast cancer patients. Metastasis is the spread of cancer to distant sites in the body away from the primary tumor, creating secondary tumors, or metastases.

Network analysis of KLF5 targets showing the potential oncogenic role of SNHG12 in colorectal cancer
Background KLF5 is a member of the Kruppel-like factor, subfamily of zinc finger proteins that are involved in cancers. KLF5 functions as a transcription factor and regulates the diverse protein-coding genes (PCGs) in colorectal cancer (CRC).

A global role for KLF1 in erythropoiesis revealed by ChIP-seq in primary erythroid cells [PDF]
KLF1 regulates a diverse suite of genes to direct erythroid cell differentiation from bipotent progenitors. To determine the local cis-regulatory contexts and transcription factor networks in which KLF1 operates, we performed KLF1 ChIP-seq in the mouse ...

Post-transcriptional regulation across human tissues [PDF]
Transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation shape tissue-type-specific proteomes, but their relative contributions remain contested. Estimates of the factors determining protein levels in human tissues do not distinguish between (i) the factors determining the variability between the abundances of different proteins, i.e., mean-level ...

The CACCC-binding protein KLF3/BKLF represses a subset of KLF1/EKLF target genes and is required for proper erythroid maturation in vivo [PDF]
The CACCC-box binding protein erythroid Kruppel-like factor (EKLF/KLF1) is a master regulator that directs the expression of many important erythroid genes.

Dynamics of gene expression and the regulatory inference problem [PDF]
From the response to external stimuli to cell division and death, the dynamics of living cells is based on the expression of specific genes at specific times. The decision when to express a gene is implemented by the binding and unbinding of transcription factor molecules to regulatory DNA.

Functional Evolution of cis-Regulatory Modules at a Homeotic Gene in Drosophila [PDF]
It is a long-held belief in evolutionary biology that the rate of molecular evolution for a given DNA sequence is inversely related to the level of functional constraint.
