Zinc-finger transcription factors in plants. Cell Mol Life Sci 54: 582-596 Several classes of zinc-finger motifs are present in transcription factors and function as parts of DNA-binding and protein-protein interaction domains. Most of the known classes of zinc-finger motifs earlier identified in...
ZFP also belongs to a large family of transcription factor. It plays many important regulatory roles in plants. Here, we explained that the percentage of ZFP transcription factor in total transcription factors is similar among plant species. The ZFP functions were implicated in development, growth,...
Zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) were one kind of the most abundant transcription factors in higher plants (Takatsuji 1999). According to the number and location of cysteine and histidine residues, ZFPs were classified into different groups, including C2H2, C2HC5, C2C2, CCCH, C3HC4, C4, C4HC...
Zinc-finger transcription factors, as one of the largest transcription factor (TF) families in plants, are critical regulators for multiple biological processes, such as morphogenesis, signal transduction and environmental stress responses [1, 2]. They are characterized by the presence of common zinc...
Heritable endogenous gene regulation in plants with designed polydactyl zinc finger transcription factors. Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA 99, 13296–13301 (2002). Article CAS PubMed PubMed Central Google Scholar Ren, D. et al. PPARγ knockdown by engineered transcription factors: exogenous PPARγ2...
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs or MPKs) are one of the most important and conserved signaling molecules in plants. MPKs can directly modulate gene expression by the phosphorylation of transcription factors. However, only a few target substrates of MPKs have been i...
to explore and elucidate the genetic basis and underlying molecular mechanisms governing drought resistance in plants. Transcription factors (TFs) are engaged not only in direct interactions with other associated proteins but also exhibit specific binding affinities to thecis-elements within the gene promo...
Genome Editing in Plants: An Overview of Tools and Applications Among the metalloproteins and metal-binding domains, the zinc finger motif, characterized by the presence of a structural zinc ion, is surely the most emblematic [12-15] as it has been intensively studied for its known ubiquitous ...
Cold stress is one of the most important abiotic stresses in rice. C2H2 zinc finger proteins play important roles in response to abiotic stresses in plants. In the present study, we isolated and functionally characterized a new C2H2 zinc finger protein transcription factor OsCTZFP8 in rice. OsCT...
Zinc-finger transcription factors act as one of the largest transcription factor (TF) families in plants, which are critical regulators for multiple biological processes, such as morphogenesis, signal transduction and environmental stress responses. Most CCCH proteins can widely participate in plant ...
