摘要: NAC(NAM、ATAF1/2、CUC2)蛋白家族是植物特异性转录因子超家族,广泛存在于多样的植物中。大多数NAC蛋白具有保守的DNA结合结构域,其大约150个氨基酸位于蛋白质的N末端,并且在C末端区域具有高度可变的转录调节区域。该类家族基因在多个生物过程中发挥关键作用,如植物生长、发育和应激反应网络。因此,NAC转录因子被持续关注。近年来,尤其是近5年来对NAC的家族成员的功能研究获取了突破性的发现。总结NAC转录因子的最新研究进展,旨在为植物的遗传改良和育种提供参考。

Abstract: NAC(NAM,ATAF1/2,CUC2)proteins are the superfamily of plant-specific transcription that are present in a wide range of species. Most of NAC proteins harbor a highly conserved DNA binding domain at the N-terminus consisting of approximately 150 amino acids and a flexible C-terminal domain being essential for transcriptional regulation. The NAC family members have been found to function in various processes including growth,development and stress response network;therefore,NAC transcription factors are continuously concerned. In recent years,especially in the past five years,groundbreaking discoveries in the functional research of NAC family members have achieved. Here,the progress of the plant NAC transcription factor function is reviewed,aiming at summarizing recent advances in NAC transcription factors and providing a reference for plant genetic improvement and breeding.
