摘要
ERF(ethylene resposive factor)是植物所特有的一类转录因子。ERF家族成员在结构上有共同的特点:每个成员都含有一个大约由60个氨基酸组成的非常保守的DNA结合域,含有ERF结合域的转录因子在植物中广泛存在,并且参与植物的生长发育及生理生化反应的信号转导。本文主要介绍了植物转录因子ERF家族的结构及其功能的研究进展。
The ERF transcription factors are known to be unique in plants.The members of this family have a Common feature in structure： all the members contain one conserved DNA-binding domains,which Consist of about 60 amino acids.ERF transcription factors exist commonly in plants,and they were involved in growth,development and signal transduction in many physiological and biochemical processes.In this review we mainly introduce the progress in the structure and function of the ERF transcription factors.
