From the sequencing of the human genome, we believe that there are approximately 21,000 protein-coding genes in the genome, of which 1500–3000 are transcription factors

If every gene has a tissue-specific and signal-dependent transcription pattern, how can such a small number of transcriptional regulatory proteins generate a much larger set of transcriptional patterns?
