Unveiling Forkhead-mediated regulation of yeast cell cycle and metabolic networks.

ABSTRACT: Transcription factors are regulators of the cell's genomic landscape. By switching single genes or entire molecular pathways on or off, transcription factors modulate the precise timing of their activation. The Forkhead (Fkh) transcription factors are evolutionarily conserved to regulate organismal physiology and cell division. In addition to molecular biology and biochemical efforts, genome-wide studies have been conducted to characterize the genomic landscape potentially regulated by Forkheads in eukaryotes. Here, we discuss and interpret findings reported in six genome-wide Chromatin ImmunoPrecipitation (ChIP) studies, with a particular focus on ChIP-chip and ChIP-exo. We highlight their power and challenges to address Forkhead-mediated regulation of the cellular landscape in budding ye
