ZNF143 binds DNA and stimulates transcription initiation to activate and repress direct target genes.

Transcription factors bind to sequence motifs and act as activators or repressors. Transcription factors interface with a constellation of accessory cofactors to regulate distinct mechanistic steps to regulate transcription. We rapidly degraded the essential and pervasively expressed transcription factor ZNF143 to determine its function in the transcription cycle.
