Eukaryotic transcription factors
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 1998The structural characterization of eukaryotic transcription factors that interact with DNA has advanced on two fronts in the past two years. New complexes of transcription factors bound to TATA-box DNA include the TFIIA-TBP-DNA complex as well as human and archaeal TBP-DNA and TFIIB-TBP-DNA complexes, respectively.

TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS | Overview
2006The term ‘transcription factor’ refers to a large family of proteins, which exert transcriptional control via specific interactions with regulatory gene sequences. Here, we provide a summary of the different classes of the transcription factor divided according to their DNA-binding motifs. The modular structure of transcription factors and the presence

Trends in Plant Science, 2010
WRKY transcription factors are one of the largest families of transcriptional regulators in plants and form integral parts of signalling webs that modulate many plant processes. Here, we review recent significant progress in WRKY transcription factor research. New findings illustrate that WRKY proteins often act as repressors as well as activators, and

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1993
Studies of yeast transcription factors have contributed greatly to understanding basic molecular mechanisms of eukaryotic gene regulation, largely due to powerful genetic approaches that are unavailable in other organisms. The broad outlines of these mechanisms are fairly well understood, and there is an increasing number of examples where detailed ...

Eukaryotic transcription factors
Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2002Recently determined high-resolution structures of eukaryotic transcription factors have illuminated the enzymatic mechanism underlying transcription. Progress has been made in characterising protein-protein interactions between negative cofactors and general transcription factors, and between transrepression domains and corepressors.

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2003
The functions of the basal transcription factors involved in RNA polymerase II dependent transcription have been the focus of many years of biochemical analysis. Recent advances have shed some light on the structure of these factors, how conformational changes and intramolecular interactions regulate activity, and have revealed an expanded role for ...

Inhibitory transcription factors
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 1996Although the majority of the transcription factors that were initially characterized had a stimulatory effect on gene expression, it is now clear that transcription factors that inhibit gene transcription are at least as important in regulating a wide variety of processes, including development.
