Transcription factor paralogs orchestrate alternative gene regulatory networks by context-dependent cooperation with multiple cofactors

Feng et al. compare the genome-wide binding and activity of two Drosophila Hox transcription factors that determine the identities of different fly legs. For binding events that are Hox specific, two cofactors, Exd and Dll, are used to achieve specificity in non-overlapping leg domains.
