A dual switch controls bacterial enhancer-dependent transcription
Bacterial RNA polymerases (RNAPs) are targets for antibiotics. Myxopyronin binds to the RNAP switch regions to block structural rearrangements needed for formation of open promoter complexes. Bacterial RNAPs containing the major variant σ(54) factor are activated by enhancer-binding proteins (bEBPs) and transcribe genes whose products are needed in pathogenicity and stress responses. We show th...
متن کاملA 3' enhancer controls snail expression in melanoma cells.
The snail gene encodes a transcriptional repressor that functions during animal development and in cancer progression to promote epithelial-mesenchymal transitions. Strict spatial and temporal boundaries of Snail expression in development imply precise transcriptional control, which becomes inappropriately activated in many cancer subtypes. To gain insight into the molecular mechanism(s) govern...
متن کاملInitialization enhancer for non-negative matrix factorization
Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF), proposed recently by Lee and Seung, has been applied to many areas such as dimensionality reduction, image classification image compression, and so on. Based on traditional NMF, researchers have put forward several new algorithms to improve its performance. However, particular emphasis has to be placed on the initialization of NMF because of its local co...
متن کاملAn autoregulatory enhancer controls mammary-specific STAT5 functions
Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription (STATs) are principal transcription factors downstream of cytokine receptors. Although STAT5A is expressed in most tissues it remains to be understood why its premier, non-redundant functions are restricted to prolactin-induced mammary gland development and function. We report that the ubiquitously expressed Stat5a/b locus is subject to additio...
متن کاملEnhancer priming by H3K4 methyltransferase MLL4 controls cell fate transition.
Transcriptional enhancers control cell-type-specific gene expression. Primed enhancers are marked by histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) mono/di-methylation (H3K4me1/2). Active enhancers are further marked by H3K27 acetylation (H3K27ac). Mixed-lineage leukemia 4 (MLL4/KMT2D) is a major enhancer H3K4me1/2 methyltransferase with functional redundancy with MLL3 (KMT2C). However, its role in cell fate maint...
