In eukaryotes, various proteins termed as transcription factors are involved in the regulation of transcription. Besides, the post-transcriptional modification also takes place in eukaryotes where the pre-mRNA (the result of transcription) is edited by the process of splicing before the mature mRNA re...
While many methods can be regulated during this step, two of the more well-known methods involve using proteins known as activators and repressors. These proteins are part of a particular class of protein called transcription factors. As their names imply, activators play a significant role in ...
There are over 20,000 protein-coding genes in the human genome, which make up a small percent of the total DNA present. The rest of the DNA is responsible for regulating gene expression. Gene expression regulation is vital for cell differentiation. Thanks to gene expression regulation, cells ...
A parasitic plant is a plant that obtains all or part of its nutrition from another plant (the host) without contributing to the benefit of the host. The defining structural feature of a parasitic plant is the haustorium, a specialized organ that forms a
Much of the tolerance in varieties such as FR13A has been shown to be under the control of the Sub1 locus, which includes 2-3 tightly-linked putative transcription factors. Sub1 was transferred into the Indian cultivar Swarna, resulting in a ...
Blood cell differentiation:Blood cells are derived fromhematopoietic stem cells, which differentiate intoerythrocytes,leukocytes, andplatelets. This process is controlled by the activation of specific transcription factors and signaling pathways and is crucial for the proper functioning of theimmune systemand...
The microarrays are designed to produce the expression profile of genes that encode essential receptors, ligands, intracellular regulators, and transcription factors involved in the regulation of programmed cell death. The genes involved in anti-apoptosis can also be assessed with this methodology. ...
Hold together the two strands of DNA Bind transcription factors to each other Hydrogen Bonding in Water Although hydrogen bonds form between hydrogen and any other electronegative atom, the bonds within water are the most ubiquitous (and some would argue, the most important). Hydrogen bonds form ...
Here we find variable, context-specific deficits in the ability of the different PTHS-associated TCF4 mutants to transactivate these promoters when coexpressed with different bHLH transcription factors. These data demonstrate that PTHS-associated missense mutations can have multiple effects on the ...
Abiotic Factors – Water Conditions A still body of water may be disturbed by a variety of factors. One of them is wind. In fact, it is considered as the pr.. Gene Regulation in Eukaryotes Learn about the general structure of a eukaryotic gene, the transcription factors, and post-transcri...
