E-box independent chromatin recruitment turns MYOD into a transcriptional repressor

|
By Chiara Nicoletti, Jimmy Massenet, LEAH CONNOR, Andreas P Pintado-Urbanc
| BioRxiv
Abstract MYOD is an E-box sequence-specific basic Helix-Loop-Helix (bHLH) transcriptional activator that, when expressed in non-muscle cells, induces nuclear reprogramming toward skeletal myogenesis by promoting chromatin accessibility at previously silent loci.
