Regulation of Transcription of Coronaviruses [PDF]
To study factors involved in regulation of transcription of coronaviruses, we constructed defective interfering (DI) RNAs containing sg RNA promoters at multiple positions. Analysis of the amounts of sg DI RNA produced by these DIs resulted in the following observations: (i) a downstream promoter downregulates an upstream promoter; (ii) an upstream ...

The transcriptional regulation of pluripotency [PDF]
The defining features of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are their self-renewing and pluripotent capacities. Indeed, the ability to give rise into all cell types within the organism not only allows ESCs to function as an ideal in vitro tool to study embryonic development, but also offers great therapeutic potential within the field of regenerative medicine.

Transcriptional pausing at the translation start site operates as a critical checkpoint for riboswitch regulation [PDF]
International audienceOn the basis of nascent transcript sequencing, it has been postulated but never demonstrated that transcriptional pausing at translation start sites is important for gene regulation.

Complex coordination of cell plasticity by a PGC-1α-controlled transcriptional network in skeletal muscle [PDF]
Skeletal muscle cells exhibit an enormous plastic capacity in order to adapt to external stimuli. Even though our overall understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie phenotypic changes in skeletal muscle cells remains poor, several factors ...

Transcriptional Regulation by Nrf2
Significance: Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a transcription factor that coordinates the basal and stress-inducible activation of a vast array of cytoprotective genes. Understanding the regulation of Nrf2 activity and downstream pathways has major implications for human health.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Mechanism of PAX3-FKHR in transcriptional regulation
[[abstract]]The PAX3-FKHR fusion protein is formed as a result of t(2;13) chromosomal translocations and functions as a transcription factor to activate transcription.
