Other Information

**Key Characteristics** NFYA is a subunit of the NFY transcription factor complex, which consists of three subunits: A, B, and C. NFYA is a DNA-binding subunit that interacts with other transcription factors to regulate gene expression. It is highly conserved across species and has been identified in various cell types, including immune cells, muscle cells, and epithelial cells. NFYA is also known to interact with other transcription factors, such as SREBP and ATF6, to regulate the expression of genes involved in lipid and cholesterol metabolism. **Pathways and Functions** NFYA plays a critical role in regulating gene expression in response to various cellular stimuli, including: 1. **Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Response**: NFYA interacts with ATF6 to regulate the expression of chaperone genes and promote cell survival. 2. **Lipid and Cholesterol Metabolism**: NFYA interacts with SREBP and PPARα to regulate the expression of genes involved in lipid and cholesterol synthesis and degradation. 3. **Cellular Responses to Stimuli**: NFYA regulates the expression of genes involved in inflammation, immune responses, and cell survival in response to various stimuli. 4. **DNA-Binding Transcription Factor Activity**: NFYA interacts with RNA polymerase II to regulate the expression of genes involved in transcriptional regulation. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of NFYA has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Metabolic Disorders**: NFYA dysfunction has been linked to metabolic disorders, such as obesity and insulin resistance. 2. **Cancer**: NFYA has been shown to play a role in cancer development and progression, particularly in immune cells and epithelial cells. 3. **Neurodegenerative Diseases**: NFYA has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 4. **Immune Disorders**: NFYA dysfunction has been linked to immune disorders, such as autoimmune diseases and immunodeficiency disorders. In conclusion, NFYA is a critical transcription factor that plays a vital role in regulating gene expression in response to various cellular stimuli. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of NFYA in maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing disease. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which NFYA regulates gene expression and its role in disease pathogenesis.
