Gene expression profiling in neuronal cells identifies a different type of transcriptome modulated by NF-Y

Abstract A heterotrimeric transcription factor NF-Y is crucial for cell-cycle progression in various types of cells. In contrast, studies using NF-YA knockout mice have unveiled its essential role in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis in neuronal cells. However, whether NF-Y modulates a differen...
