Functional characterization of the transcription factor YjjQ in Escherichia coli [PDF]
YjjQ is a FixJ/NarL‐type transcriptional regulator conserved in commensal and various pathogenic bacteria such as enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) as well as Citrobacter and Enterobacter.

Transcriptional Regulation of the Beta-Synuclein 5′-Promoter Metal Response Element by Metal Transcription Factor-1 [PDF]
The progression of many human neurodegenerative disorders is associated with an accumulation of alpha-synuclein. Alpha-synuclein belongs to the homologous synuclein family, which includes beta-synuclein.

Emerging roles of MITF as a crucial regulator of immunity
Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF), a basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor (bHLH-Zip), has been identified as a melanocyte-specific transcription factor and plays a critical role in melanocyte survival ...

Human disease locus discovery and mapping to molecular pathways through phylogenetic profiling
Genes with common profiles of the presence and absence in disparate genomes tend to function in the same pathway. By mapping all human genes into about 1000 clusters of genes with similar patterns of conservation across eukaryotic phylogeny, we ...

Growth Regulatory Proteins that Repress Differentiation Markers in Melanocytes Also Downregulate the Transcription Factor Microphthalmia [PDF]
Expression of basic fibroblast growth factor cDNA or dominantly acting oncogenes, e.g., E1A, in immortalized mouse melanocytes leads to autonomous growth in vitro, depigmentation, and in the case of the oncogenes, tumorigenesis. Because downregulation of

Using temporal correlation in factor analysis for reconstructing transcription factor activities [PDF]
Two-level gene regulatory networks consist of the transcription factors (TFs) in the top level and their regulated genes in the second level. The expression profiles of the regulated genes are the observed high-throughput data given by experiments such ...

A transcriptional network underlies susceptibility to kidney disease progression
The molecular networks that control the progression of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) are poorly defined. We have recently shown that the susceptibility to development of renal lesions after nephron reduction is controlled by a locus on mouse chromosome 6
