Their complex transcription regulation is thought to be achieved by the combinatorial action of multiple transcription factors which bind to cis- regulatory DNA sequences.
Initial functional results suggested that transactivation by CAR/RXR heterodimers is not affected by RXR ligands, including 9-cis-RA or synthetic rexinoids, indicating that CAR is a non-permissive RXR partner.
Although combinatorial action of transcription factors has been studied throughout the life cycle of organisms [ 2 ] , perhaps the most coherent picture has emerged in the context of developmental processes [ 3 4 ] . Here, a great number of experiments suggest that a major part of the gene regulatory apparatus is organized in the form of separable cis- regulatory modules [ 3 ] . A given module defines specific aspects of the spatio-temporal pattern of gene expression by the combinatorial action of multiple transcription factors which together define the rate of transcription.
Several recent papers [ 6 7 9 ] as well as ours have taken only the very first steps in applying computational approaches to the the elucidation of cis- regulatory modules.
Yet more confirming evidence to the pessimists amongst us who lament the deterioriation of standards by the users and abusers of the Mother Tongue, especially cis-Atlantic journalists.
