Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells respond to thermal and chemical stress by inducing a group of genes collectively designated heat shock genes. In eukaryotes,...
The ATF/CREB transcription factor family binds the palindromic cAMP response element (CRE) octanucleotide TGACGTCA. The ATF/CREB family includes CREM,...
The helix-loop-helix (HLH) structures are known motifs commonly found in membrane-active and DNA-binding proteins. Helix-loop-helix proteins (HEN1 and HEN2)...
The Sp transcription factor family includes Sp1, Sp2, Sp3 (SPR-2) and Sp4(SPR-1). Sp transcription factors share similar structures but do not share similar...

Casein kinase I (also designated CKI) and casein kinase II (also designated CKII) compose a family of serine/threonine protein kinases which are present in...
The LIM-only (LMO) proteins, LMO1 and LMO2, are nuclear factors that are characterized by a conserved LIM domain. The LIM domain consists of a cysteine-rich...
SCAND1 (SCAN domain containing 1), also known as RAZ1 or SDP1, is a nuclear protein that may play a role in the mechanism of transcription regulation. It is...
Dlx5 (distal-less homeobox 5) gene is a member of a homeobox gene family similiar to the Drosophila distal-less gene. The encoded Dlx5 protein is localized...
ELL was shown to encode an elongation factor that can increase the catalytic rate of RNA polymerase II transcription by suppressing transient pausing by the...
AF10 is a putative transcription factor containing a leucine zipper motif. A t (10;11) (p12;q23) chromosomal translocation present in a proportion of acute...
