Peer pressure often evokes unexpected behavior, and protein partners might do the same. The Methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) has long been considered a transcriptional repressor, given its ...
High-risk papillomavirus type 18 (HPV18) is one of the less represented HPV types in low-grade lesions of the anogenital tract, whereas it occupies the second place in cervical cancer, where it can be ...
Transcription of the arginine biosynthetic gene ARG1 is repressed by the ArgR/Mcm1p complex in arginine-replete cells and activated by Gcn4p, a transcription factor induced by starvation for any amino ...
During development, many crucial genes help organisms form properly. One of those genes is myogenic determination gene number 1 (MyoD), which can exert a powerful influence as a “genome organizer." It ...
