A global function for transcription factors in assisting RNA polymerase II termination. [PDF]
The role of transcription factors (TFs) on nucleosome positioning, RNA polymerase recruitment, and transcription initiation has been extensively characterized.

Inhibition of RNA polymerase II transcription in human cells by synthetic DNA-binding ligands [PDF]
Sequence-specific DNA-binding small molecules that can permeate human cells potentially could regulate transcription of specific genes. Multiple cellular DNA-binding transcription factors are required by HIV type 1 for RNA synthesis.

Transposon-derived transcription factors across metazoans
Transposable elements (TE) could serve as sources of new transcription factors (TFs) in plants and some other model species, but such evidence is lacking for most animal lineages. Here, we discovered multiple independent co-options of TEs to generate 788

Gene expression is a fundamental process that is highly conserved from humans to bacteria. The first step in gene expression, transcription, is performed by structurally conserved DNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RNAPs), which results in the synthesis of an RNA molecule from a DNA template.

A dynamic mode of mitotic bookmarking by transcription factors. [PDF]
During mitosis, transcription is shut off, chromatin condenses, and most transcription factors (TFs) are reported to be excluded from chromosomes. How do daughter cells re-establish the original transcription program? Recent discoveries that a select set

Fungal CSL transcription factors
Background The CSL (CBF1/RBP-Jκ/Suppressor of Hairless/LAG-1) transcription factor family members are well-known components of the transmembrane receptor Notch signaling pathway, which plays a critical role in metazoan development.

Targeted Degradation of Transcription Factors by TRAFTACs: Transcription Factor Targeting Chimeras
Many diseases, including cancer, stem from aberrant activation and overexpression of oncoproteins that are associated with multiple signaling pathways. Although proteins with catalytic activity are able to be successfully drugged, the majority of other ...

Temperature-sensitive protein–DNA dimerizers [PDF]
Programmable DNA-binding polyamides coupled to short peptides have led to the creation of synthetic artificial transcription factors. A hairpin polyamide-YPWM tetrapeptide conjugate facilitates the binding of a natural transcription factor Exd to an ...

Regulation of Transcription Elongation and Termination
This article will review our current understanding of transcription elongation and termination in E. coli. We discuss why transcription elongation complexes pause at certain template sites and how auxiliary host and phage transcription factors affect ...
