Transcription factors (TFs) bind DNA at specific sequences to regulate gene expression.
This universal process is achieved via their DNA-binding domain (DBD). In mammals, the …

Histone methylation plays a central role in regulating chromatin state and gene expression
in Arabidopsis and is involved in a variety of physiological and developmental processes …

The developmental switch from a vegetative phase to reproduction (flowering) is essential
for reproduction success in flowering plants, and the timing of the floral transition is …

Vegetable oils are not only major components of human diet but also vital for industrial
applications. WRINKLED1 (WRI1) is a pivotal transcription factor governing plant oil …

Photoperiod is an annual cue measured by biological systems to align growth and

Photoperiod‐mediated flowering determines the phenological adaptability of crops including
soybean (Glycine max). A genome‐wide association study (GWAS) identified a new …

SUMMARY TEMPRANILLO1 (TEM1) is a transcription factor belonging to related to ABI3
