Pleiotropic Functions for Transcription Factor Zscan10
The transcription factor Zscan10 had been attributed a role as a pluripotency factor in embryonic stem cells based on its interaction with Oct4 and Sox2 in in vitro assays. Here we suggest a potential role of Zscan10 in controlling progenitor cell populations in vivo. Mice homozygous for a Zscan10 mutation exhibit reduced weight, mild hypoplasia in the spleen, heart and long bones and phenocopy...

متن کاملThe Pleiotropic Functions of Interleukin 15
Since its discovery in 1994, IL-15 has been studied in the context of its structural cousin, IL-2 (1). Early biochemical and in vitro lymphocyte studies revealed many similarities between IL-15 and IL-2: (a) IL-2 and IL-15 constitute the only two members of a family of cytokines containing a four a helix bundle; (b) the heterotrimeric receptors for IL-2 and IL-15 share both the IL-2/15R b and I...
متن کاملGenome-wide identification of genes directly regulated by the pleiotropic transcription factor Spx in Bacillus subtilis
The transcriptional regulator Spx plays a key role in maintaining the redox homeostasis of Bacillus subtilis cells exposed to disulfide stress. Defects in Spx were previously shown to lead to differential expression of numerous genes but direct and indirect regulatory effects could not be distinguished. Here we identified 283 discrete chromosomal sites potentially bound by the Spx-RNA polymeras...
متن کاملHybrid incompatibility despite pleiotropic constraint in a sequence-based bioenergetic model of transcription factor binding.
Hybrid incompatibility can result from gene misregulation produced by divergence in trans-acting regulatory factors and their cis-regulatory targets. However, change in trans-acting factors may be constrained by pleiotropy, which would in turn limit the evolution of incompatibility. We employed a mechanistically explicit bioenergetic model of gene expression wherein parameter combinations (numb...
