G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 Runx proteins are bifunctional transcription factors that both repress and activate transcription in animal cells. Typically, Runx proteins work in concert with other transcriptional regulators, including co-activators and co-repressors to mediate their ...

Chemical synthesis of a fully active transcriptional repressor protein. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1994 Plasmid pLS1-encoded 45-amino acid transcriptional repressor CopG (formerly RepA) has been chemically synthesized. A one-step purification of the synthetic protein has been developed, which yields high levels of pure protein with low or no contamination of truncated products.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Nature Communications, 2019 Brassicaceae produce glucosinolates to protect against herbivory and pathogens. Here the authors show that auxin-sensitive Aux/IAA repressor proteins regulate aliphatic glucosinolate levels in Arabidopsis and this promotes stomatal closure via reactive ...

Epigenetic Control of Cytomegalovirus Latency and Reactivation
Viruses, 2013 Cytomegalovirus (CMV) gene expression is repressed in latency due to heterochromatinization of viral genomes. In murine CMV (MCMV) latently infected mice, viral genomes are bound to histones with heterochromatic modifications, to enzymes that mediate ...

The chromatin remodeling factor CHD5 is a transcriptional repressor of WEE1. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Loss of the chromatin remodeling ATPase CHD5 has been linked to the progression of neuroblastoma tumors, yet the underlying mechanisms behind the tumor suppressor role of CHD5 are unknown.

The c1 repressor of bacteriophage P1. Isolation and characterization of the repressor protein.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1988 The c1 repressor gene of bacteriophage P1 is located on P1 DNA EcoRI fragment 7 (Sternberg, N. (1979) Virology 96, 129-142). Subfragments of P1 DNA EcoRI fragment 7 were cloned into expression vectors, and the c1 repressor protein from P1 wild-type phage and a revertant of a temperature-sensitive repressor mutant were overproduced in Escherichia coli ...

The transcriptional repressor protein PRH interacts with the proteasome [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 2003 PRH (proline-rich homeodomain protein)/Hex is important in the control of cell proliferation and differentiation. We have shown previously that PRH contains two domains that can bring about transcriptional repression independently; the PRH homeodomain represses transcription by binding to TATA box sequences, whereas the proline-rich N-terminal domain ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Nature Communications, 2019 PurR acts as transcriptional repressor of purine biosynthesis genes in some bacterial species. Here, the authors show that purR mutations can arise in Staphylococcus aureus upon exposure to stress, leading to upregulation of fibronectin-binding proteins ...
