{"symbol":"NFYC","synonyms":["CBF-C","NF-YC","HAP5","H1TF2A","CBFC","HSM"],"name":"nuclear transcription factor Y, gamma","description":"This gene encodes one subunit of a trimeric complex forming a highly conserved transcription factor that binds with high specificity to CCAAT motifs in the promoters of a variety of genes. The encoded protein, subunit C, forms a tight dimer with the B 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. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
