The word "transactivate" in example sentences

Once ligand-bound, the AhR is then able to transactivate the expression of the CYP1A1-controlled PPARβ/δ transgene in the epidermis via the AhR-responsive DXE/XRE element (shown in fig. 2d). ❋ Malgorzata Romanowska Et Al. (2010)

The PPAR subfamily of nuclear hormone receptors also includes PPARα (target of fibrate class lipid lowering drugs) and PPARγ (target of the rosiglitazone-family of anti-diabetes drugs), all of which form heterodimers with the RXRα subunit of retinoid receptors and require binding of ligands in order to bind cognate promoters and transactivate distinct set of target genes. ❋ Malgorzata Romanowska Et Al. (2010)

We also show the expression of Beclin 1 depends on E2F, and E2F can transactivate the ❋ Bing Wang Et Al. (2010)

To demonstrate that E2Fs can directly transactivate the Beclin 1 promoter, we performed Beclin 1 promoter reporter assay in T98G cells. ❋ Bing Wang Et Al. (2010)
