Abstract excerpt
ZmMRP-1 is a single MYB-domain transcription factor specifically expressed in the transfer cell layer of the maize endosperm, where it directly regulates the expression of a number of transfer cell specific genes and very likely contributes to the regulation of the transfer cell differentiation process. It is still a matter of debate, however, how this type of transcription factors interact with the promoter...
