The control of gene expression in eukaryotes is more complex than that in prokaryotes. In general, a greater number of regulatory proteins are involved, and regulatory binding sites may be located ...

regulation of gene expression by transcription factors is said to be combinatorial, in that it requires the coordinated interactions of multiple proteins (in contrast to prokaryotes, in which a ...

When it is fused to a reporter protein gene, it can regulate (repress or promote) the protein expression in response ... reported to date are based on prokaryotic cell-free systems and therefore ...

Beginning with this issue, we will take a look at expression vectors available for prokaryotic systems, particularly E. coli. This series will continue in later issues and will take a look at what the ...
