Tubby-like proteins (TLPs) transcription factor in different regulatory mechanism in plants: a review.

Tubby-like proteins (TLPs) transcription factors are found in single-celled to multi-cellular eukaryotes in the form of large multigene families. TLPs are identified through a specific signature of carboxyl terminal tubby domain, required for plasma membrane tethering and amino terminal F-box domain communicate as functional SCF-type E3 ligases. The comprehensive distribution of TLP gene family members in diverse species indicates some conserved functions of TLPs in multicellular organisms.

Transcriptional Landscape of Cotton Fiber Development and Its Alliance With Fiber-Associated Traits.

Cotton fiber development is still an intriguing question to understand fiber commitment and development. At different fiber developmental stages, many genes change their expression pattern and have a pivotal role in fiber quality and yield. Recently, numerous studies have been conducted for transcriptional regulation of fiber, and raw data were deposited to the public repository for comprehensive integrative analysis.
