CATEGORY transcription factor
SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
intracellular,nucleus
basic FUNCTION
  • essential for expression of the proapoptotic BCL2L11 gene in sympathetic neurons
    • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component forming a trimeric complex with NFYB and NFYC
    INTERACTION
    DNA binding to the CCAAT and the inverted CCAT-box,Y-box (ATGG) motifs in a variety of promoters
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with SARS2 (NFYA, NFYB, NFYC influences directionality of transcription from the bidirectional MRPS12/SARS2 promoter)
  • NFYA, NFYB, NFYC, cooperates with FOXO3 to recruit EP300 to the BCL2L11 promoter to form a stable multi-protein/DNA complex that activates BCL2L11 transcription after survival factor withdrawal
  • NFYA, NFYB, NFYC can act as a transcriptional activator of ABCB4
  • NFYA, NFYB, NFYC and YY1 are important for the basal transcription of PCYT2 and NFY is involved in the inhibitory effects of 25-HC on PCYT2 transcription
