Term Information

Accession: GO:0016602
Name: CCAAT-binding factor complex
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: CBF complex, NF-Y transcription factor complex, nuclear transcription factor Y complex
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A heteromeric transcription factor complex that binds to the CCAAT-box upstream of promoters; functions as both an activator and a repressor, depending on its interacting cofactors. Typically trimeric consisting of NFYA, NFYB and NFYC subunits. In Saccharomyces, it activates the transcription of genes in response to growth in a nonfermentable carbon source and consists of four known subunits: HAP2, HAP3, HAP4 and HAP5.
