A conserved GA element in TATA-less RNA polymerase II promoters. [PDF]
Initiation of RNA polymerase (Pol) II transcription requires assembly of the pre-initiation complex (PIC) at the promoter. In the classical view, PIC assembly starts with binding of the TATA box-binding protein (TBP) to the TATA box.

Transcriptional regulation of the human ALDH1A1 promoter by the oncogenic homeoprotein TLX1/HOX11
The homeoprotein TLX1, which is essential to spleen organogenesis and oncogenic when aberrantly expressed in immature T cells, functions as a bifunctional transcriptional regulator, being capable of activation or repression depending on cell type and/or ...

Bidirectional binding of the TATA box binding protein to the TATA box [PDF]
By selective attachment of a DNA cleavage agent to specific residues in the yeast TATA box binding protein (yTBP), we demonstrate that, in solution, yTBP binds to the TATA boxes of both the adenovirus major late promoter and the yeast CYC1 promoter with only a modest preference in orientation and binds well to ...

Selective Binding of the TATA Box-Binding Protein to the TATA Box-Containing Promoter: Analysis of Structural and Energetic Factors [PDF]
We report the results of an energy-based exploration of the components of selective recognition of the TATA box-binding protein (TBP) to a TATA box sequence that includes 1) the interaction between the hydrophobic Leu, Pro, and Phe residues of TBP with the TA, AT, AA, TT, and CG steps, by ab initio quantum mechanical calculations; and 2) the free ...

Comprehensive study in the inhibitory effect of berberine on gene transcription, including TATA box. [PDF]
Berberine (BBR) is an established natural DNA intercalator with numerous pharmacological functions. However, currently there are neither detailed reports concerning the distribution of this alkaloid in living cells nor reports concerning the relationship

An experimental verification of the predicted effects of promoter TATA-box polymorphisms associated with human diseases on interactions between the TATA boxes and TATA-binding protein. [PDF]
Human genome sequencing has resulted in a great body of data, including a stunningly large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with unknown phenotypic manifestations. Identification and comprehensive analysis of regulatory SNPs in human gene

TATA-box binding protein-associated factor 2 regulates grain size in rice
Grain size, characterized by a combination of grain length, width, and thickness, is one of the major determinants of yield in rice. The present study identified TATA-box binding protein-associated factor 2 (TAF2) as an essential component regulating ...

Stepwise Bending of DNA by a Single TATA-Box Binding Protein [PDF]
The TATA-box Binding Protein (TBP) is required by all three eukaryotic RNA polymerases for the initiation of transcription from most promoters. TBP recognizes, binds to, and bends promoter sequences called ``TATA-boxes'' in the DNA. We present results from the study of individual Saccharomyces cerevisia TBPs interacting with single DNA molecules ...
