While Kucinich did call Assad's government an "authoritarian regime," he echoed its depiction of the conflict as a result of meddling by the U.S. and partner nations including Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar ― deflecting responsibility from the Assad family's decades-long repression.
But as long as repression remains, these other mermyths will hold sway.
(The predominantly Muslim Uighur region of China has long endured repression by the Chinese government, and was recently the site of violence between Uighurs and ethnic Chinese residents).
However much it would like migrants to simply disappear, the boats are likely to keep coming as long as repression and conflict in the Middle East and Africa continue to drive the largest wave of mass migration since the second world war.
Thus, CYP26A1 transcriptional downregulation, induced by hampering CRABP2 function, is consequent to a "long distance" repression effect, branching downstream of RARβ2, and involving both CRBP1 and CYP26A1 chromatin (Fig. 6).
It appears that Zeb1/δEF1 maintains long term repression of E-cadherin initiated by Snail1, as suggested by others previously [ 10, 15].
The model fit to steady state expression data is capable of predicting the major aspects of induction in diauxic shift, and suggests that both CRP and AraC are capable of binding their operators and interacting with RNA polymerase as long as repression by AraC is relieved.
Across the time course, differentially expressed immune effector genes belonged to six clusters displaying three general patterns: transient induction immediately after immune challenge; long-lasting induction; or long-lasting repression.
Our previous study [ 21] has shown that persistent estrogen-mediated long-range repression leads to recruitment of H3K27me3 repressive chromatin marks, which are accompanied by the accumulation of DNA methylation in a gene cluster located at 16p11.2.
The group IV subfamily of CCT genes also contains a long- day repressor in rice (Ghd7 [93]) suggesting that long-day repression might be an ancestral feature and that regulation by cold was recruited to the cereal flowering pathway at a later date.
Furthermore, the Dorsal protein, when itself acting as a long-range repressor, is dependent on neighboring Cut and Dri transcription factor motifs to function, indicating that long-range repression complexes may require specific cis-regulatory grammar (Cai et al., 1996; Nibu et al., 2001).
