About NFYA

Cytogenetic location: 6p21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:41,072,974-41,102,403 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants) and 234 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 5.4), brain (RPKM 3.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is one subunit of a trimeric complex, forming a highly conserved transcription factor that binds to CCAAT motifs in the promoter regions in a variety of genes. Subunit A associates with a tight dimer composed of the B and C subunits, resulting in a trimer that binds to DNA with high specificity and affinity. The sequence specific interactions of the complex are made by the A subunit, suggesting a role as the regulatory subunit. In addition, there is evidence of post-transcriptional regulation in this gene product, either by protein degradation or control of translation. Further regulation is represented by alternative splicing in the glutamine-rich activation domain, with clear tissue-specific preferences for the two isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
