The proteins encoded by CeCBFs feature classic AP2 domains and CBF signature sequences, localize in the nucleus and exhibit transactivation activity. Additionally, stress-related, abscisic acid, and jasmonic acid responsive elements are present on the CeCBFs promoters. Expression analysis revealed that...
Studies have shown that the cold signal regulation pathway dependent on CBF (CRT/DRE binding factor), namely ICE1 (Inducer ofCBF/DREB1expression 1)-CBF-COR (cold-responsive) pathway, is the most clearly studied cold response pathway in plants [4,8,9]. In this pathway, ICE1 is rapidly e...
A recent advance in understanding cold acclimation in Arabidopsis was the discovery of the C-repeat/dehydration-responsive element binding factor (CBF) cold-response pathway (see Thomashow, 2001). Arabidopsis encodes a small family of cold-responsive transcriptional activators known either as CBF1, ...
responsive element binding factor (CBF) transcriptional activators followed by expression of CBF-targeted genes that increase freezing tolerance. Here, we present evidence for a CBF cold-response pathway in Brassica napus. We show that B. napus encodes CBF-like genes and that transcripts for these ...
The severe and pleiotropic nature of the effects of this mutation could then be readily understood if it disrupted binding of a critical repression effector. Loss of a transcription factor interaction as in the UNC-37 His539Tyr mutation would only disrupt those developmental processes specifically ...
C-repeat binding factor (CBF) signaling pathway is involved in cold acclimation responsive to low temperature and some other stresses. CBF transcription factor family is the key component of this pathway. In this study, eight CBF -like genes, BrCBF1 , BrCBF2 , BrCBF3 , BrCBF4 , BrCBF5 ,...
the two accessions are locally adapted, that the SW ecotype is more tolerant of freezing than the IT ecotype, and that genetic differences between the two ecotypes that condition local adaptation and freezing tolerance map to a region that includes the C‐repeat binding factor ( CBF ) locus. ...

The CBF (C-repeat binding factor) gene, a unique plant transcription factor classified within the AP2/ERF (ethylene response factor) family, plays a vital role in the process of plants coping with abiotic stress, particularly low temperatures. This study utilized bioinformatics techniques to ...
