Point mutations in BCL6 DNA-binding domain reveal distinct
... We show here by point mutation analysis that the six ZFs of BCL6 are not equivalent in DNA-binding activity. Similar findings were reported for the POK proteins ZF5 and Kaiso [12 and 13]. The described experiments differed from our work though, as the ZF region of these two proteins was not examined ...

However gl2 trichome morphology is variable, and shows defects from stage 2 to stage 6 In leaf primordia, the GL2 gene is expressed in all cell layers. – Because the number of cell layers and leaf morphology of developing gl2 leaves are not obviously different from wild-type, the nontrichome functio ...
