Abstract
The aim of this work is to investigate the dual role of MIXTA in modulating transcription in order to determine if MIXTA can act both as an activator to cDNAs which are switched-on by the MIXTA product (and generally encode proteins associated with cell wall biosynthesis), or as a repressor to cDNAs which are down regulated by MIXTA activity and include proteins implicated in a signal transduction pathway. An assessment will also be made as to how and to what extent the target genes of MIXTA are implicated in the change of cell shape.
