Transcription Factors and Hypopituitarism
Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1999Several homeodomain factors are found in the developing anterior pituitary lobe. The production of these developmental transcription factors has distinct temporal and spatial patterns. By interacting with each other, as well as with other extrinsic and intrinsic signals, they control cell determination and specification.

Transcription factors: An overview
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 1997This special issue of the International Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology contains a series of review articles and original papers dealing with the topic of transcription factors. The purpose of this introductory article is to provide an overview of these factors, their mechanism of action, their regulation and the manner in which alterations in

Transcription factors and osteoblasts
Frontiers in Bioscience, 1998Transcription factors play a key role in determination of the fate of the cells in osteoblastic and chondrocytic lineage. A runt family member, Cbfa, is indispensable for osteoblastic differentiation. Sox 9 and scleraxis are involved in the phenotypic expression in chondrocytes and the cells of early stage connective tissues.

Transcription factors on the move
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2012Mobile transcription factors play essential roles in plant development including the control of cell identity and tissue patterning, as well as organ initiation and the induction of major developmental switches. Within the past few years, the molecules and cellular structures that regulate the movement of these signals have emerged.

Publisher Summary Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are characterized by an increased expression of the components of the inflammatory cascade. Inflammation is the central feature of both the diseases as both involve the recruitment and activation of inflammatory cells and changes in the structural cells of the lung.

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

Transcription factors in disease
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1996Mutations affecting several predominantly tissue-specific transcriptional regulators have recently been associated with disease phenotypes. Although the mutational spectrum is variable, many of the reported cases involve clear loss-of-function mutations-such as Waardenburg syndrome type 1, aniridia and Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome-suggesting that the ...

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

CREB: a stimulus-induced transcription factor activated by a diverse array of extracellular signals.
Annual Review of Biochemistry, 1999Extracellular stimuli elicit changes in gene expression in target cells by activating intracellular protein kinase cascades that phosphorylate transcription factors within the nucleus. One of the best characterized stimulus-induced transcription factors,

Transcription Factor Drug Targets
Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2016Transcription factors represent the point of convergence of multiple signaling pathways within eukaryotic cells. Deregulated transcription factors contribute to the pathogenesis of a plethora of human diseases, ranging from diabetes, inflammatory ...
