Abstract excerpt
NF-Y is a CCAAT-specific transcription factor thought to be involved in the regulation of a variety of eukaryotic genes. It shows a striking sequence similarity with the yeast factor HAP2/3. In an attempt to trace back its evolutionary history, we succeeded in isolating NF-Y cDNA clones from a plant and from several species of vertebrates. The patterns of sequence conservation delineate potential functional...
