Annotated Information

Gene Symbol

• Os12g0613000 <=> OsNF-YA9

Function

• Nuclear factor γ (NF-γ) is a ubiquitous transcription factor that regulates important physiological and developmental processes.
• In plants, the roles of NF-γ were identified in regulation of embryogenesis, flowering time, chloroplast biogenesis, seed germination and stress tolerance.

Expression

• Expression profile analysis covering the whole life cycle revealed that transcripts of OsNF-γ differentially accumulated in a tissue-specific preferential or constitutive manner.
• Analysis of expression correlation and Gene Ontology annotation suggested that OsNF-Y genes were co-expressed with genes that participated in stress, accumulation of seed storage reserves, and plant development.
• Co-expression analysis also revealed that OsNF-Y genes might interact with each other, suggesting that NF-γ subunits formed complexes that take part in transcriptional regulation.

Evolution

• NF-γ is a heterotrimeric complex composed of three subunits: NF-γA (CBF-B/HAP2), NF-γB (CBF-A/HAP3), and NF-γC

(CBF-C/HAP5).

• NF-γ complexes are CCAAT-specific transcription factors that bind to CCAAT sites in DNA to control the expression of target genes .
