{"symbol":"YY1","synonyms":["YIN-YANG-1","INO80S","UCRBP","GADEVS"],"name":"YY1 transcription factor","description":"YY1 is a ubiquitously distributed transcription factor belonging to the GLI-Kruppel class of zinc finger proteins. The protein is involved in repressing and activating a diverse number of promoters.  YY1 may direct histone deacetylases and histone acetyltransferases to a promoter in order to activate or repress the promoter, thus implicating histone modification in the function of YY1.
