Abstract
A new way by which the potency of a eukaryotic transcription factor can be regulated has been discovered, in which nuclear factors increase the concen tration of the transcription factor's active form by modulating an otherwis e unfavorable equilibrium between monomeric and dimeric forms of the protei n.
