Species-Specific Strategies Underlying Conserved Functions of Metabolic Transcription Factors
4 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
The winged helix protein FOXA2 and the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ) are highly conserved, regionally expressed transcription factors (TFs) that regulate networks of genes controlling complex metabolic functions. Cistrome analysis for Foxa2 in mouse liver and PPARγ in mouse adipocytes has previously produced consensus-binding sites that are nearly identical to those used by...
