gene: nfya-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; positive regulation of nematode male tail tip morphogenesis; and tissue development. Located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including excretory cell; gonad; head neurons; oocyte; and somatic nervous system. Used to study cancer. Is an ortholog of human NFYA (nuclear transcription factor Y subunit alpha).
