Stress-induced nuclear RNA degradation pathways regulate yeast bromodomain factor 2 to promote cell survival.

abstract：:The transcription factor CONSTANS (CO) is a central component that promotes Arabidopsis flowering under long-day conditions (LDs). Here, we show that the microRNA319-regulated TEOSINTE BRANCHED/CYCLOIDEA/PCF (TCP) transcription factors promote photoperiodic flowering through binding to the CO promoter and activating i...
