MYB30 Regulates Photomorphogenesis via Interactions with Active Phytochromes and PIFs
Research, The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefMYB proteins are a group of transcription factors that are highly conserved in all vertebrates and were first implicated in avian myeloblastosis (leukemia). Subsequently, they were shown to be cellular proto-oncogenes that regulate production of blood cells in animals. MYB proteins contain a DNA-binding…
