Boron Stress Responsive MicroRNAs and Their Targets in Barley
(2013)Boron stress is an environmental factor affecting plant development and production. Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been found to be involved in several plant processes such as growth regulation and stress responses. In ... -
Genome wide identification of ARF transcription factor gene family and their expression analysis in sweet potato
(East Carolina University, 2021-07-15)Auxin response factors (ARFs) are a family of transcription factors that play an important role of auxin regulation through their binding with auxin response elements. ARF genes are represented by a large multigene family ... -
Genome-Wide Identification And Expression Analysis Of TCP Transcription Factors In Cotton
(East Carolina University, 2015)TCP proteins are plant-specific transcription factors known to perform a variety of physiological functions during plant growth and development. In the current study, we performed for the first time the comprehensive ... -
Investigating the role of transcription factor, Trl, during germline development in the Drosophila ovary
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-22)Oogenesis is the process by which an egg develops from undifferentiated cells in the ovary. The Drosophila melanogaster ovary is an assembly line for egg production, making it a great system to investigate initial oocyte ... -
The Role of Transcription Factors Snail and Slug in Cardiac Myofibroblasts
(East Carolina University, 2014)CCardiac fibrosis is a major facet contributing to cardiac dysfunction following a myocardial infarction. Persistent and excessive collagen deposition via cardiac myofibroblasts is the hallmark of cardiac fibrosis. Cardiac ... -
Tumour necrosis factor-alpha regulates expression of the CCAAT-enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBPs) alpha and beta and determines the occupation of the C/EBP site in the promoter of the insulin-responsive glucose-transporter gene in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
(East Carolina University, 1999-03-15)We have demonstrated previously that treatment of 3T3-L1 adipocytes with tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) results in a rapid (4 h) and significant (75–80%) reduction in the rate of transcription of the GLUT4 gene. Control ...
