Beyond Promoters: How Genes Tweak Their Own Expression.

Beyond Promoters: How Genes Tweak Their Own Expression. Trends Genet. 2018 Aug 14;: Authors: Székely T, Balázsi G Abstract The correct expression of genes is vital for cells to function. Schikora-Tamarit et al. show that, in addition to obeying their promoters, most genes can modulate their own expression by either buffering or amplification. This could help to avoid costly overexpression of proteins. PMID: 30119990 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
