Potential mechanisms for the regulation of transcription factors via natural decoys (NDs). The accessibility of NDs may be modulated by other proteins, DNA methylation, and chromatin structures. When most NDs for a transcription factor become inaccessible, the transition from the “off” state to the “on” state (see Fig. 1B) may occur, which enhances the activity of the transcription factor.
