Research Abstract |
For 4 years of investigation term supported under the research project of Scientific Research in Priority Areas, approximately 900papers have been published in the international journals with an aerage citation index of 8.3 per paper. Both quantity and quality of the published papers of this research project have clearly made substantial contribution to the field of transcriptional regulation. The research groups consisted of two subgroups which pursued pursued the two main projects : 1)Mechanism of interactions between transcription factors and molecular mechanisms mechanisms of expression of thir transcriptional actiuity, 2)Search for target genes targeting technology. The steering steering commitee of this project promsted the communication and discussion between two subgroups to occelerate the progress in research work and hold symposia on transcriptional reeyulation to publisigze the results obtained by the research group. The results are enormous ranging from novel transcription factors, coactiwators, corepressors and and foctors involved in transcription elongaion and initiation Target genes and functions of the transcription factors have been elucidated by gene targeting technology. Undifferentiated states of stem cells have been clarified to be maintained by teh expression of transcription repressons.
