- BDR proteins repress expression of the floral repressor, FLC - BDR proteins physically interact with the autonomous pathway protein FPA - BDR-repressed genes have high levels of Pol II occupancy, despite low mRNA levels - Gene repression by BDR may involve the inhibition of transcription elongation
While studying the regulation of flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana, we uncovered a family of proteins that play multifaceted roles in gene expression via a common mechanism: slowing down the progression of RNA polymeraseII
Tools for the analysis and integration of high throughput data
Ensuring that one gene's transcription does not inappropriately affect the expression of its neighbors is a fundamental challenge to gene regulation in a genomic context. In plants, which lack homologs of animal insulator proteins, the mechanisms …
