Streptococcus suis is an important pathogen in both pigs and humans. Although the diseases associated with S. suis can typically be treated with antibiotics, such use has resulted in a sustained increase in drug resistance. Bacteria can sense and respond

NINJA connects the co-repressor TOPLESS to jasmonate signalling
Jasmonoyl-isoleucine (JA-Ile) is a plant hormone that regulates a broad array of plant defence and developmental processes. JA-Ile-responsive gene expression is regulated by the transcriptional activator MYC2 that interacts physically with the jasmonate ...

Actinobacteria utilize various polysaccharides in the soil as carbon source by degrading them via extracellular hydrolytic enzymes. Agarose, a marine algal polysaccharide composed of D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose (AHG), is one of the carbon ...

Transcriptional co-repressor function of the hippo pathway transducers YAP and TAZ.
YAP (yes-associated protein) and TAZ are oncogenic transcriptional co-activators downstream of the Hippo tumor-suppressor pathway. However, whether YAP and/or TAZ (YAP/TAZ) engage in transcriptional co-repression remains relatively unexplored.

The Wheat VRN2 Gene Is a Flowering Repressor Down-Regulated by Vernalization
Plants with a winter growth habit flower earlier when exposed for several weeks to cold temperatures, a process called vernalization. We report here the positional cloning of the wheat vernalization gene VRN2, a dominant repressor of flowering that is ...

Crystal and cocrystal structures of the LacI and PurR repressors reveal a novel use of hinge alpha helices which bind in the minor groove of the operator and mediate transmission of the allosteric signals that modulate DNA-binding activity.

Ci/Gli zinc finger proteins mediate the transcriptional effects of Hedgehog protein signals. In Drosophila, Ci action as transcriptional repressor or activator is contingent upon Hedgehog-regulated, PKA-dependent proteolytic processing.
