Abstract excerpt
Transcription factors (TFs) modulate gene expression as a consequence of internal or exogenous changes in cell signaling. TFs can bind to DNA either with their effector bound (holo conformation), or as free proteins (apo conformation). With the aim of contributing to the understanding of the evolutionary fitness and organizational principles behind the different TF conformations, we inquire into the origins of...
