Abstract excerpt
A novel DNA-binding activity, designated CBF, has been identified in nuclear extracts from tobacco leaf, stem and root tissue. CBF interacts specifically with a 30 bp promoter fragment, referred to as cyt-1, of the Agrobacterium tumefaciens T-DNA cytokinin (T-cyt) gene. The T-cyt promoter, although of bacterial origin is active in planta and the 30 bp cyt-1 element is located within a region that is essential for...
