Identifying All Factors Modulating Gene Expression Is Actually Possible!

MNT:  "The screening technique developed by the researchers, called Synthetic Tandem Repeat PROMoter (STAR-PROM), is a pioneering technology: "The 850 or so elements constituting this library, constructed and screened in a year and a half, should allow us to identify the majority of factors modulating gene expression in a particular context," says Alan Gerber. Whether in the context of drug treatment, the exploration of a specific signalling pathway, the identification of new regulators, with any stimulus, the applications of this technique are countless.
