The identification and characterization of cis-regulatory DNA sequences and how they
function to coordinate responses to developmental and environmental cues is of paramount …

The CCAAT box promoter element and NF-Y, the transcription factor (TF) that binds to it,
were among the first cis-elements and trans-acting factors identified; their interplay is …

The sequence-specific transcription factor NF-Y binds the CCAAT box, one of the sequence
elements most frequently found in eukaryotic promoters. NF-Y is composed of the NF-YA …

Cellular senescence is a stable cell cycle arrest that limits the proliferation of pre-cancerous
cells. Here we demonstrate that scaffold-attachment-factor A (SAFA) and the long noncoding …

Abstract Nuclear Factor Y (NF-Y) is a heterotrimeric transcription factor that binds CCAAT
elements. The NF-Y trimer is composed of a Histone Fold Domain (HFD) dimer (NF-YB/NF …

Cell metabolism in living organisms is largely regulated at the transcriptional level, and the
promoters are regarded as basic regulatory elements responsible for transcription initiation …

Regulation of seed dormancy/germination is of great importance for seedling establishment
and crop production. Nuclear factor-Y (NF-Y) transcription factors regulate plant growth and …

Extensive epidemiological studies suggest that the diabetic population is at higher risk of
site-specific cancers. The diabetes–cancer link has been hypothesized to rely on various …

RNA interactome studies have revealed that hundreds of zinc-finger proteins (ZFPs) are
candidate RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), yet their RNA substrates and functional …

The miR169 miRNA family is highly conserved in plants. Its members regulate the
expression of genes encoding the universal transcription factor subunit NUCLEAR FACTOR …
