The eye of the fruit fly provides a highly tractable genetic model system for the study of animal development, and many genes that regulate eye formation have homologs implicated in human development and disease. Among these is the homeobox gene (), which encodes a homeodomain transcription factor (TF) that is both necessary for eye development and sufficient to reprogram a subset of cells outside the normal eye field toward an eye fate. We have performed a genome-wide analysis of So binding to DNA prepared from developing eye tissue in order to identify candidate direct targets of So-mediated transcriptional regulation, as described in our recent article [1]. The data are available from NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) with the accession number GSE52943. Here we describe the methods, data analysis, and quality control of our So ChIP-seq dataset.

Maize anthracnose, caused by the fungal pathogen Colletotrichum graminicola, is among the most devastating diseases affecting maize production. Homeobox transcription factors (HTFs) regulate key developmental and physiological processes in eukaryotes, including fungal pathogenesis. In this study, we identified two HTFs, CgrHtf1 and CgrAfh1, in C.

To explore the role of WRKY transcription factors in resistance, a WRKY15 homologous gene, CsWRKY15, and its promoter were isolated from tea plants when intercropped with chestnut. CsWRKY15 expression was significantly induced by ethephon, polyethylene glycol (PEG), and low temperature. Notably, its expression was strongly induced by exogenous gibberellic acid (GA3).

Sinoatrial node (SAN) dysfunction often accompanies supraventricular tachyarrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation (AF), which is referred to as tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome (TBS). Although there have been many studies on electrical remodeling in TBS, the regulatory mechanisms that cause electrical remodeling in the SAN and atrial muscles by chronic bradycardia or tachycardia have not yet been fully investigated. Here we hypothesized Pitx2c, a transcription factor that played a central role in the late aspects of left-right asymmetric morphogenesis, regulated an interrelationship between the SAN and the atrial muscles and was involved in TBS-like pathology.

Hes1 (Hairy and enhancer of split 1) is a transcriptional repressor that plays a fundamental role in the regulation of embryogenesis and cell lineage specification. The temporal dynamics of Hes1 mRNA and Hes1 protein expression are known to exhibit sustained oscillations. However, many existing mathematical models can reproduce these oscillations only transiently, eventually dampening toward a steady state.
