Abstract
Materials and methods are provided for identifying regulatory region-regulatory protein associations and modulating expression of a sequence of interest. For example, a plant cell is provided containing a regulatory protein that can modulate expression of one or more genes involved in alkaloid biosynthesis in plants, which, in turn, can modulate the amount and/or rate of biosynthesis of one or more alkaloid compounds.
