Transcription Factor
Genome-wide analysis of TCP family in tobacco
Authors: L. Chen, Y.Q. Chen, A.M. Ding, H. Chen, F. Xia, W.F. Wang and Y.H. Sun
The TCP family is a transcription factor family, members of which are extensively involved in plant growth and development as well as in signal transduction in the response against many physiological and biochemical stimuli. In the present study, 61 TCP genes were identified in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) genome. Bioinformatic.. Read More»

Relationship between TBX20 gene polymorphism and congenital heart disease
Authors: X.F. Yang, Y.F. Zhang, C.F. Zhao, M.M. Liu, J.P. Si, Y.F. Fang,W.W. Xing and F.L. Wang
Congenital heart disease in children is a type of birth defect. Previous studies have suggested that the transcription factor, TBX20, is involved in the occurrence and development of congenital heart disease in children; however, the specific regulatory mechanisms are yet to be evaluated. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate th.. Read More»

OsMYB511 encodes a MYB domain transcription activator early regulated by abiotic stress in rice
Authors: P. Huang, H. Chen, R. Mu, X. Yuan, H.S. Zhang and J. Huang
The MYB-domain proteins exist universally across diverse organisms and regulate numerous processes during the plant life cycle. In the present research, a full-length MYB gene OsMYB511 was identified from rice seedlings through microarray data. Induction of OsMYB511 by cold stress was dramatic in japonica cultivar Jiucaiqing as compared to indica IR26. In.. Read More»

Genetic expression and functional characterization of the RUNX2 gene in human adult bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells
Authors: J.Y. Zhang and L.C. Li
Past studies have revealed the critical role of runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) in the proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). This study therefore aimed to investigate the expression profile of the RUNX2 gene in human bone marrow MSCs and its biological characteristics. Bone marrow MSCs were separated from 12 patie..

Data integration for identification of important transcription factors of STAT6-mediated cell fate decisions
Authors: M. Jargosch, S. Kr�¶ger, E. Gralinska, U. Klotz, Z. Fang, W. Chen, U. Leser, J. Selbig, D. Groth and R. Baumgrass
Data integration has become a useful strategy for uncovering new insights into complex biological networks. We studied whether this approach can help to delineate the signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6)-mediated transcriptional network driving T helper (Th) 2 cell fate decisions. To this end, we performe.. Read More»

Cloning and stress response analysis of the PeDREB2A and PeDREB1A genes in moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis)
Authors: H.L. Wu, L. Li, Z.C. Cheng, W. Ge, J. Gao and X.P. Li
Moso bamboo is a large woody bamboo with the highest ecological, economic, and cultural value among all bamboos in Asia. However, environmental stress influences its growth and development and limits its geographic distribution. Therefore, improving its resistance to environmental stress is extremely important. Dehydration responsive element binding (DREB.. Read More»
