The Pre-Initiation Complex (PIC), which consists of Mediator, TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, TFIIF, TFIIH, and RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), governs the expression of all protein-coding and most non-coding ...

Did you know that the DNA in any cell of the human body—or any organism for that matter—contains the genetic information required to develop every possible type of cell within that organism? Yet cell ...

Sequence-specific, DNA-binding TFs are the major regulators of cell identity and cell physiology. As examples, expression of select TFs can revert differentiated cells back to a pluripotent state and ...

Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have discovered that how a special protein complex called the Mediator moves along genes in DNA may have an impact on how cells divide. The discovery may be ...

Small (left) and large (right) condensates of the Mediator complex inside nuclei of a pancreatic beta cell-derived cell line. Salk researchers discovered that GLP-1s interact with the multi-protein ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators have identified candidate treatment targets and potential prognostic markers for high-grade glioma, an aggressive brain ...

A new study advances existing knowledge about transcription and gene expression. This multi-institution team of researchers made interesting discoveries about the role of the Mediator protein complex ...
