A transcriptional activator is a protein (transcription factor) that increases transcription of a gene or set of genes. [1] Activators are considered to have positive control over gene expression, as they function to promote gene transcription and, in some cases, are required for the transcription of genes to occur.
The Ac Activator element is autonomous, whereas the Ds Dissociation element requires an Activator element to transpose. [1] Ac was initially discovered as enabling a Ds element to break chromosomes. Both Ac and Ds can also insert into genes, causing mutants that may revert to normal on excision of the element. [2]
The dCas9 activation system allows a desired gene or multiple genes in the same cell to be expressed. It is possible to study genes involved in a certain process using a genome wide screen that involves activating expression of genes. Examining which sgRNAs yield a phenotype suggests which genes are involved in a specific pathway.
H3K4me3 is commonly associated with the activation of transcription of nearby genes. H3K4 trimethylation regulates gene expression through chromatin remodeling by the NURF complex. [ 2 ] This makes the DNA in the chromatin more accessible for transcription factors , allowing the genes to be transcribed and expressed in the cell.

The player can increase the mod capacity of each Descendant and weapon through leveling up, gaining more mastery levels, using a crystallization catalyst and by using an Energy Activator. [4] The crystallization catalyst reduces the Descendant's level to zero, but allows the player to alter mod slots, so the player can equip mods with the same ...
Transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) can be engineered to bind to practically any desired DNA sequence, so when combined with a nuclease, DNA can be cut at specific locations. [1] The restriction enzymes can be introduced into cells, for use in gene editing or for genome editing in situ , a technique known as genome editing with ...
Activator may refer to: Activator (genetics), a DNA-binding protein that regulates one or more genes by increasing the rate of transcription; Activator (phosphor), a type of dopant used in phosphors and scintillators; Enzyme activator, a type of effector that increases the rate of enzyme mediated reactions
