High impact information on PCNA1

  • An earlier study identified two E2F consensus binding sites in the promoter of a Nicotiana benthamiana gene encoding proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and showed that the proximal element (E2F2) is required for the full repression of PCNA expression in mature leaves [1].
  • The proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) functions as a sliding clamp for DNA polymerase, and is thus a key actor in DNA replication [2].
  • Two cell-cycle regulated SET-domain proteins interact with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in Arabidopsis [2].
 

Biological context of PCNA1

  • Potential E2F binding sites found in the rice PCNA promoters mediated transcriptional activation in actively dividing cells and tissues of tobacco, but not transcriptional repression in terminally differentiated tissues, as also observed for the PCF binding sites previously found in the rice promoter [3].
