Locally acting transcription factors are required for p53-dependent cis-regulatory element activity

The paper investigates how local transcription factors influence p53-bound cis-regulatory elements, showing that co-regulatory factors and sequence context affect CRE activity and gene expression.

Comparison of genotoxic vs. non-genotoxic stabilization of p53 provides insight into parallel stress-responsive transcriptional networks

The paper compares genotoxic and non-genotoxic p53 activation in human fibroblasts, showing similar genome-wide binding and chromatin changes but distinct inflammatory gene expression patterns.

The transcription factor Tfap2e/AP-2ε plays a pivotal role in maintaining the identity of basal vomeronasal sensory neurons

This study shows that AP-2ε maintains basal vomeronasal sensory neuron identity by preventing apical gene expression and highlights their differentiation plasticity.
