A systematic model to predict transcriptional regulatory mechanisms based on overrepresentation of transcription factor binding profiles.
An important aspect of understanding a biological pathway is to delineate the transcriptional regulatory mechanisms of the genes involved. Two important tasks are often encountered when studying transcription regulation, i.e., (1) the identification of common transcriptional regulators of a set of coexpressed genes; (2) the identification of genes that are regulated by one or several transcript...
متن کاملRecent Insights into Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 2 Transcriptional Regulation
Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) are major regulators of insulin-like growth factor bioavailability and activity in metabolic signaling. Seven IGFBP family isoforms have been identified. Recent studies have shown that IGFBPs play a pivotal role in metabolic signaling and disease, including the pathogenesis of obesity, diabetes, and cancer. Although many studies have document...
متن کاملSuppression of GATA factor activity causes axis duplication in Xenopus.
In Xenopus, the dorsoventral axis is patterned by the interplay between active signalling in ventral territories, and secreted antagonists from Spemann's organiser. Two signals are important in ventral cells, bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) and Wnt-8. BMP-4 plays a conserved role in patterning the vertebrate dorsoventral axis, whilst the precise role of Wnt-8 and its relationship with BMP-...
متن کاملGATA factor activity is required for the trophoblast-specific transcriptional regulation of the mouse placental lactogen I gene.
The molecular determinants governing tissue-specific gene expression in the placenta are at present only poorly defined, particularly with respect to the regulation of specific hormone genes whose products are vital to embryonic development and the maintenance of a nurturing maternal environment. In continuing our analysis of the trophoblast-specific expression of the mouse placental lactogen I...
متن کاملTRANSFAC®: transcriptional regulation, from patterns to profiles
The TRANSFAC database on eukaryotic transcriptional regulation, comprising data on transcription factors, their target genes and regulatory binding sites, has been extended and further developed, both in number of entries and in the scope and structure of the collected data. Structured fields for expression patterns have been introduced for transcription factors from human and mouse, using the ...
