    Abstract

    Electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) and in vitro transcription/translation show that NF-Y binds to the inverted CCAAT-element in the promoter of the rodent spot14 gene. The NF-Y-binding sequence has been shown to be responsible for basal activity in H4IIE. Given the similar role found for the inverted CCAAT-element in the promoter of the FAS gene, NF-Y may have an important function in the control of lipogenesis.
