Regulatory regions of plant genes promoters and proteins-regulators of promotive activity

Summary

A system-defined analysis of the literary data concerning functionality of specific DNA sequences (cys-elements) proximally located in the regulator areas of plant genes and protein trans-factors has been presented in the review. The peculiarities of interaction between cys- and transregulatory elements determining species- or organ-specific expression of the genes, cell reaction on external and internal signals, cell adaptation to negative environmental factors, and plants protection from damage and diseases have been reviewed.
