About NFYB

Cytogenetic location: 12q23.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:104,117,086-104,138,210 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 244 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in prostate (RPKM 10.4), endometrium (RPKM 9.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is one subunit of a trimeric complex, forming a highly conserved transcription factor that binds with high specificity to CCAAT motifs in the promoter regions in a variety of genes. This gene product, subunit B, forms a tight dimer with the C subunit, a prerequisite for subunit A association. The resulting trimer binds to DNA with high specificity and affinity. Subunits B and C each contain a histone-like motif. Observation of the histone nature of these subunits is supported by two types of evidence; protein sequence alignments and experiments with mutants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
