A model for SRAF and SC. (A) A model for the repressed state, where SUMO-conjugation disrupts the interaction with the co-activator. (B) A model for the repressed state where multiple SUMO-conjugated factors recruit a multivalent co-repressor; SCF, synergy control factor (9). (C) Traditional concept of synergy mediated by joint recruitment of a multivalent co-activator. (D) Current model for the activated state where multiple AFs (depicted as stars) per transcription factor lead to more efficient recruitment of a multivalent co-activator. (E) A variant of the model above (D) where different AFs may interact with different co-activators.
