Transcription factor synthesis Transcription factors (like all proteins) are transcribed from a gene on a chromosome into RNA, and then the RNA is translated into protein.
Transcription factor
Transcription factors are proteins that directly regulate the gene transcription machinery.

transcription factor
(Science: molecular biology) protein required for recognition by rNA polymerases of specific stimulatory sequences in eukaryotic genes.
Transcription factors are extraordinarily diverse, but any one factor represents only a tiny fraction of the protein molecules present in the cell. This page describes how one can isolate and purify such rare molecules.
transcription factor
A regulatory protein that binds to DNA and stimulates transcription of specific genes.
transduction ...
transcription factor - DNA binding protein that turns genes on or off (regulates the level of transcription) by binding to enhancer elements in DNA and interacting with RNA polymerase at the promoter.
Transcription factor A protein that binds to regulatory regions and helps control gene expression.
Transcriptome The full complement of activated genes, mRNAs, or transcripts in a particular tissue at a particular time ...
Transcription factors are regulated by signals produced from other molecules. For example, hormones activate transcription factors and thus enable transcription. Hormones therefore activate certain genes.
Posttranscriptional Control ...
Transcription factor: A protein which is involved in the transcription of genes. These usually bind to DNA as part of their function (but not necessarily).
A transcription factor that enhances the production of inflammatory mediators.

The transcription factors that are coded for by segmentation genes regulate yet another family of developmental control genes, the homeotic selector genes. These genes exist in two ordered groups on Drosophila chromosome 3.
Transcription factor
sometimes, interactions between different proteins. Proteins called transcription factors bind to DNA sequences, known collectively as regulatory elements, located near the coding region of the gene in question

Control elements: DNA sequences in genes that interact with regulatory proteins (such as transcription factors) to determine the rate and timing of expression of the genes as well as the beginning and end of the transcript.
CAAT box: A highly conserved DNA sequence found about 75 bp 5' to the site of transcription in eukaryotic genes. Its specific (trans-acting) transcription factor is CTF-1 (NF-1) (see also TATA / Goldberg-Hogness box).
Promoter The DNA sequences at the 5´ end of a gene which are responsible for binding RNA polymerase and transcription factors and which regulate the gene's expression.
