Abstract

Using optogenetics, the MS2-MCP system, and ChIP-seq techniques, Keenan et al. investigate the dynamic transcriptional response of ERK signaling in the early Drosophila embryo. They show that ERK signaling relieves repression of genes on a short timescale and that repression can return when signal is removed.
