Functions of NAC Transcription Factors Family in Stress Responses in Plants
NAC transcription factors belong to a unique class of transcription factors in plants. The common characteristic of the NAC proteins is the presence of a conserved NAC domain, comprising of about 150 amino acids in N-terminals and a highly variable transcriptional regulation region in C-terminals. NAC transcription factors play important roles in multiple biological processes such as secondary cell wall, plant apical meristem formation, lateral root development and crop quality improvement. Besides, it has been shown that NAC tran-scription factors play an indispensable role in plant resistance to adverse reaction. In this paper, we reviewed the recent study progress on NAC transcription factors family in stress responses in plants.
