Transcription factor is not just a transcription factor.
Plant transcription factors (TFs) play important roles in diverse biological processes, including immunity. A recent study by Zhang et al. reported that the rice TF APIP5 regulates immunity through its roles on transcription and mRNA turnover, advancing our conceptual understanding that plant TF may not only function as a TF.

Dynamics of gene expression and the regulatory inference problem [PDF]
From the response to external stimuli to cell division and death, the dynamics of living cells is based on the expression of specific genes at specific times. The decision when to express a gene is implemented by the binding and unbinding of transcription factor molecules to regulatory DNA.

Coding limits on the number of transcription factors [PDF]
Transcription factor proteins bind specific DNA sequences to control the expression of genes. They contain DNA binding domains which belong to several super-families, each with a specific mechanism of DNA binding. The total number of transcription factors encoded in a genome increases with the number of genes in the genome. Here, we examined the number

Non-equilibrium dynamics of gene expression and the Jarzynski equality [PDF]
In order to express specific genes at the right time, the transcription of genes is regulated by the presence and absence of transcription factor molecules. With transcription factor concentrations undergoing constant changes, gene transcription takes place out of equilibrium.

Genome-wide discovery of modulators of transcriptional interactions in human B lymphocytes [PDF]
Transcriptional interactions in a cell are modulated by a variety of mechanisms that prevent their representation as pure pairwise interactions between a transcription factor and its target(s). These include, among others, transcription factor activation by phosphorylation and acetylation, formation of active complexes with one or more co-factors, and ...

TF Profiler: a transcription factor inference method that broadly measures transcription factor activity and identifies mechanistically distinct networks [PDF]
TF Profiler is a method of inferring transcription factor (TF) regulatory activity, i.e., when a TF is present and actively participating in the regulation of transcription, directly from nascent sequencing assays such as PRO-seq and GRO-seq.

Transcription factor condensates and signaling driven transcription
Transcription Factor (TF) condensates are a heterogenous mix of RNA, DNA, and multiple co-factor proteins capable of modulating the transcriptional response of the cell.

The Transcription Factor Encyclopedia [PDF]
AbstractHere we present the Transcription Factor Encyclopedia (TFe), a new web-based compendium of mini review articles on transcription factors (TFs) that is founded on the principles of open access and collaboration. Our consortium of over 100 researchers has collectively contributed over 130 mini review articles on pertinent human, mouse and rat TFs.

Dynamics of transcription factor binding site evolution [PDF]
Evolution of gene regulation is crucial for our understanding of the phenotypic differences between species, populations and individuals. Sequence-specific binding of transcription factors to the regulatory regions on the DNA is a key regulatory ...
