Conclusion
The 5' cis-regulatory element known as TAGteam functions as an enhancer during the maternal-to-zygotic transition.
Supporting Evidence
- This element was previously named TAGteam.
- The authors provide functional evidence for the element's role as an enhancer.
Takeaway
Scientists found that a specific DNA element helps activate genes when a Drosophila embryo starts developing.
