CONSERVED FUNCTIONAL DOMAINS OF THE RNA-POLYMERASE-III GENERAL TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR BRF [PDF]
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, two components of the RNA polymerase III (Pol III) general transcription factor TFIIIB are the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and the B-related factor (BRF), so called because its amino-terminal half is homologous to the Pol II ...

Metabolic control through the PGC-1 family of transcription coactivators [PDF]
Many complex biological programs are controlled at the level of gene transcription by DNA binding transcription factors. Recent studies have revealed a novel mode of regulation by coactivator proteins, best illustrated by the PGC-1 family of coactivators.

Human naive CD8 T cells down-regulate expression of the WNT pathway transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 and transcription factor 7 (T cell factor-1) following antigen encounter in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
The transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF1) and transcription factor 7 (TCF7) (T cell factor-1 (TCF-1)) are downstream effectors of the WNT signaling pathway, which is a critical regulator of T cell development in the thymus.

Chapter 5 Synthesis and Evaluation of Polyamide-Isoxazolidine
Pyrrole-Imidazole hairpin polyamides are a cell-permeable class of DNA-binding small molecules that are able to access chromatin and disrupt the transcription factor-DNA binding interface, thereby downregulating endogenous gene expression in human ...

MYB transcription factors that colour our fruit
Anthocyanin concentration is a primary determinant of plant colour. Fruit anthocyanin biosynthesis is controlled by a distinct clade of R2R3 MYB transcription factors.

MOLECULAR MECHANISMS OF DRUG RESISTANCE IN CANDIDA ALBICANS: ROLE OF TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS MCM1 AND ADA2 [PDF]
Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen responsible for localized as well as disseminated infections. C. albicans is the most commonly isolated specie from blood cultures, accounting for over 60% of all Candida isolates. The fungistatic drug

Walking, hopping and jumping: a model of transcription factor dynamics on DNA [PDF]
We present a model of how transcription factors scan DNA to find their specific binding sites. Following the classical work of Winter et al. (1981), our model assumes two modes of transcription factor dynamics.
