The ubiquitous family of AP-1 dimeric transcription complexes is involved in virtually all
cellular and physiological functions. It is paramount for cells to reprogram gene expression …

This article reviews findings up to the end of 1997 about the inducible transcription factors
(ITFs) c-Jun, JunB, JunD, c-Fos, FosB, Fra-1, Fra-2, Krox-20 (Egr-2) and Krox-24 (NGFI-A …

The specificity of biological regulatory mechanisms relies on selective interactions between
different proteins in different cell types and in response to different extracellular signals. We …

Fos and Jun family proteins regulate the expression of a myriad of genes in a variety of
tissues and cell types. This functional versatility emerges from their interactions with related …

The HMG-1 and-2 proteins have three structural domains. Two of these domains, termed A
and B, have significant homology with each other, and the third comprises an acidic carboxy …

Enhancers regulate gene expression through the binding of sequence-specific transcription
factors (TFs) to cognate motifs. Various features influence TF binding and enhancer function …

Cooperation among transcription factors is central for their ability to execute specific
transcriptional programmes. The AP1 complex exemplifies a network of transcription factors …

The Egr proteins, Egr-1, Egr-2, Egr-3 and Egr-4, are closely related members of a subclass
of immediate early gene-encoded, inducible transcription factors. They share a highly …

The MADS domain proteins APETALA1 (AP1), APETALA3 (AP3), PISTILLATA (PI), and
AGAMOUS (AG) specify the identity of Arabidopsis floral organs. API and AG …

In this paper, we investigate DNA bending induced by proteins required for virus induction of
the human interferon-p (IFNp) gene. We showthat NF-KB-DNA~~~-plexes that are …
