YY1 Antibody from BIOLEGEND

Yin Yang 1 (YY1), is a ubiquitously distributed transcription factor that plays a pivotal role in regulating gene expression and coordinating various cellular processes. By interacting with other transcription factors, co-regulators, and epigenetic modifiers, YY1 can modulate gene expression to control diverse biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and development. Based on its interactions with other proteins such as MYC, YY1 can function as a transcriptional activator or repressor. Furthermore, YY1 is involved in maintaining genomic stability and has been implicated in DNA repair mechanisms. Its ability to interact with a wide range of regulatory elements and its context-dependent transcriptional activities make YY1 an essential factor in orchestrating intricate gene regulatory networks within the cell, and a potential target for cancer therapies.
