How can you use “repressors” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

These hybrid molecules activate transcription [ 9 31 ] . It may be possible to produce small-molecule activators (or repressors) that bind DNA specifically, but also activate transcription of adjacent genes through a non-peptidic, more drug-like moiety.
These conditions are consistent with the biological activity of these transcription factors, which induce transcription of sulfur-assimilation genes in response to the demand of sulfur-containing metabolites [ 5 39 40 ] . In another example, several word pairs comprising binding sites for the transcriptional repressors Mig1p and Ume6p were associated with induced gene expression in stationary phase.
The relative and possible cooperative roles of each of these repressors in recruiting Ssn6-Tup1 remains to be determined.
Conversely, the inhibition of P-TEFb could explain the mode of action of some transcriptional repressors.
In transfected cells, subdomains of TAF II 135 can act as dominant negative repressors of CREB activity [ [ 26 27 28 ] ]. It has further been suggested that some neurodegenerative diseases may result from sequestration of TAF II 135 by expanded polyglutamine domains and consequent interference with CREB activity [ 29].
