Different transcriptional responses by the CRISPRa system in distinct types of heterochromatin in Drosophila melanogaster
Abstract Transcription factors (TFs) activate gene expression by binding to elements close to promoters or enhancers. Some TFs can bind to heterochromatic regions to initiate gene activation, suggesting that if a TF is able to bind to any type of heterochromatin, it can activate transcription. To in...
