“…It is instead becoming a key step of any structural biology project, providing structures that must be properly analyzed. The reliability of predicted protein structures is such that they can be used as starting models for molecular replacement in X-ray crystallography, for the interpretation of cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM) 3D reconstructions, and for the rational design of mutations and functional assays ( Kryshtafovych et al, 2021 ; Slavin et al, 2021 ; Alerasool et al, 2022 ; Ivanov et al, 2022 ; McCoy et al, 2022 ; Paul et al, 2022 ). Moreover, AlphaFold2 can go a step further and predict the structure of large and flexible machineries, thereby circumventing intrinsic limitations of experimental methods ( Goulet and Cambillau, 2021 ).…”

“…TFs fused to ABI1's cognate domain PYL1 are recruited to the locus bound by ABI1-dCas9 upon the addition of phytohormone S-(+) -abscisic acid (ABA) [23][24][25] , enabling precise spatiotemporal control. This strategy provides a straightforward control for non-specific effects of TF overexpression (comparing conditions with and without ABA), and scales easily because PYL1 is small compared to dCas9 (176 vs. 1360 amino acids 23 ), facilitating library generation.…”

“…Applying CRISPRburst, we characterized 78 human TFs known to induce transcription through CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) 25 . Those include sequence-specific TFs spanning several families, transcriptional co-activators, and a synthetic activator (VP64).…”

“…Sequence-specific transcription factors (TF) regulate the expression of their target genes by recognizing short DNA sequences known as transcription factor binding sites (TFBS). The specificity of TF-DNA interactions can also be affected by genome and epigenome context or protein cofactors [1][2][3][4][5][6] . In particular, most TFs work within a complex or interact with other proteins to regulate gene expression in vivo 7 .…”
