A Tale of Two Repressors [PDF]
Few proteins have had such a strong impact on a field, as the lac repressor and λ repressor have had in Molecular Biology in bacteria. The genes required for lactose utilization are negatively regulated; the lac repressor binds to an upstream operator blocking the transcription of the enzymes necessary for lactose utilization.

The MocR/GabR Ectoine and Hydroxyectoine Catabolism Regulator EnuR: Inducer and DNA Binding
The compatible solutes ectoine and 5-hydroxyectoine are widely synthesized by bacteria as osmostress protectants. These nitrogen-rich tetrahydropyrimidines can also be exploited as nutrients by microorganisms. Many ectoine/5-hydroxyectoine catabolic gene

Repressors of anthocyanin biosynthesis [PDF]
SummaryAnthocyanins play a variety of adaptive roles in both vegetative tissues and reproductive organs of plants. The broad functionality of these compounds requires sophisticated regulation of the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway to allow proper localization, timing, and optimal intensity of pigment deposition.

Regulation of Αlpha-Synuclein Gene (SNCA) by Epigenetic Modifier TET1 in Parkinson Disease [PDF]
Purpose Deregulation of SNCA encoding α-synuclein (α-SYN) has been associated with both the familial and sporadic forms of Parkinson disease (PD). Epigenetic regulation plays a crucial role in PD.
