How does auxin turn on genes?
The plant hormone auxin (or IAA) plays a key role in a wide variety of growth and developmental processes. At the cellular level, auxin acts as a signal for division, extension, and differentiation during the course of the plant life cycle. At the whole-plant level, auxin plays an important role in root formation, apical dominance, tropism, and senescence. The question is how does such a simple...

متن کاملHow many transcription factors does it take to turn on the heme oxygenase-1 gene?
The ability to communicate with the environment and respond to changes--particularly those of an adverse nature--within that environment is critical for cell function and survival. A key component of the overall cellular stress response includes adjustments in the gene expression program in favor of proteins that manifest activities capable of frustrating and eventually eliminating the molecula...
متن کاملEarly genes and auxin action.
The plant hormone IAA (or auxin) is central to the control of plant growth and development. Processes governed by auxin in concert with other plant growth regulators include development of vascular tissues, formation of lateral and adventitious roots, control of apical dominance, and tropic responses (Went and Thimann, 1937). At the leve1 of cellular physiology, auxin profoundly affects turgor,...
متن کاملChromatin turn ons and turn offs of ribosomal RNA genes.
Eukaryotes have hundreds (sometimes thousands) of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes whose transcription by RNA polymerase I helps establish the proliferative ability of cells by dictating the pace of ribosome production and protein synthesis. Interestingly, only a subset of the total rRNA gene pool is active at any one time, making rRNA genes attractive for understanding the dynamic balance between ge...
