  1. ..., transcription after ZGA depends on a small number of maternal enhancer-binding transcription factors (TFs). Zygotic activators include Zelda in Drosophila (Liang et al. 2008), as well as three homologs of pluripotency TFs, Pou5f3, Nanog, and Sox19b in zebrafish (Lee et al. 2013; Leichsenring et al. 2013...
  2. ...factor. A potential pioneer transcription factor is Zelda (Zld), which is present ubiquitously in theDrosophila early embryo and primes enhancers even before DV patterning begins (Liang et al. 2008; Harrison et al. 2011; Nien et al. 2011).While Zld is required tomake someDV enhancers accessible (Yanez...
  3. ...a dimeric version of the canonical GAGA motif bound by Trl/GAGA-Associated Factor (GAF) in Drosophila. GAF is a multifaceted transcription factor that can associate with heterochromatin (Raff et al. 1994), remodel chromatin in concert with nucleosome remodelers (Okada and Hirose 1998), and act...
  4. .... 2007; Ali-Murthy et al. 2013; Heyn et al. 2014).Zelda is a major regulator of ZGA in Drosophila and activates the expression of hundreds of genes (Liang et al. 2008; Harrison et al. 2011; Nien et al. 2011). To evaluate if Zelda might also be activating expression of these very-early-transcribed genes...
  5. ...chromatin structure and reduced nucleosome occupancy prior to zygotic activation (Li et al. 2014; Blythe and Wieschaus 2016). This early opening of enhancers is mediated by a maternally deposited TF, Zelda, a pioneer TF that actively destabilizes nucleosomes or prevents their deposition after the initial...
  6. ...evolution were modeled for Drosophila enhancers (He et al. 2011a), but not for yeast promoters (Mustonen et al. 2008). The flexibility and high rate of binding site evolution suggests that in many cases binding site loss or addition is not deleterious. Overall, we find that TF binding evolves through gains...
