... to the canonical GC box and was bound by a CTIP1 oligomeric complex(es) in vitro . Furthermore, both CTIP1 and CTIP2 repressed transcription of a reporter gene harbouring a multimerized CTIP binding site, and this repression was neither reversed by trichostatin A (an inhibitor of known class I and II histone...

... translocated to mitochondria, inserts into the outer membrane, oligomerizes and triggers the release of cytochrome c , possibly by channel formation. The BH3 domain-only protein Bid induces a conformational change in Bax before its insertion into the outer membrane. The mechanism by which Bid promotes Bax...
