Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Contributes to transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system gland. Orthologous to human NFYA (nuclear transcription factor Y subunit alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

Through genome-wide studies in mouse embryonic stem cells study finds that NF-Y is essential for the maintenance of the nucleosome-depleted region at gene promoters. Depletion of the NF-YA protein leads to the accumulation of ectopic nucleosomes over the transcription start site, reducing promoter accessibility.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
