Targeting transcription factors in cancer — from undruggable to reality

open access: yesNature Reviews Cancer, 2019
Mutated or dysregulated transcription factors represent a unique class of drug targets that mediate aberrant gene expression, including blockade of differentiation and cell death gene expression programmes, hallmark properties of cancers.

Primate-specific stress-induced transcription factor POU2F1Z protects human neuronal cells from stress

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The emergence of new primate-specific genes is an essential factor in human and primate brain development and functioning. POU2F1/Oct-1 is a transcription regulator in higher eukaryotes which is involved in the regulation of development, differentiation,

Triple-negative and triple-positive breast cancer cells reciprocally control their growth and migration via the S100A4 pathway

open access: yesCell Adhesion & Migration, 2022
The study’s aim was to investigate the S100A4-mediated mechanisms of the regulation of tumor cell proliferation and migration in the human triple-positive breast carcinoma cell line MCF-7 (TPBC) and triple-negative breast carcinoma cell line MDA-MB-231 ...

Protocol for analysis of G2/M DNA synthesis in human cells

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: G2/M DNA synthesis (G-MiDS) can be observed in one in five G2/M cells in unperturbed conditions by immunofluorescence microscopy. However, little is known of the genomic sites undergoing G-MiDS.

Dynamic interplay between non-coding enhancer transcription and gene activity in development

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Non-coding transcription at the intergenic regulatory regions is a prevalent feature of metazoan genomes, but its function remains uncertain. Here the authors show that enhancer function is flexibly tunable through the modulation of hub formation via ...

Characterization of the transcription factor encoding gene, KlADR1: metabolic role in Kluyveromyces lactis and expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Adr1 is a zinc-finger transcription factor involved in the transcriptional activation of ADH2. Deletion of KlADR1, its putative ortholog in Kluyveromyces lactis, led to reduced growth in glycerol, oleate and yeast extract ...

Simple combinations of lineage-determining transcription factors prime cis-regulatory elements required for macrophage and B cell identities

open access: yesMolecules and Cells, 2010
Summary Genome-scale studies have revealed extensive, cell type-specific co-localization of transcription factors, but the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood.

REC domain stabilizes the active heptamer of σ54-dependent transcription factor, FleR from Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Motility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is mediated through a single, polar flagellum, which is essential for virulence, colonization, and biofilm formation.

In vivo delivery of transcription factors with multifunctional oligonucleotides. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Therapeutics based on transcription factors have the potential to revolutionize medicine but have had limited clinical success as a consequence of delivery problems. The delivery of transcription factors is challenging because it requires the development

Akt promotes cell survival by phosphorylating and inhibiting a Forkhead transcription factor.

open access: yesCell, 1999
Survival factors can suppress apoptosis in a transcription-independent manner by activating the serine/ threonine kinase Akt, which then phosphorylates and inactivates components of the apoptotic machinery, including BAD and Caspase 9.
