| description | This entry includes mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 16 (MED16; also known as SENSITIVE TO FREEZING 6 or SFR6) which is known only from plants. It is a component of the Mediator complex, which is required for transcription of almost all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator provides an interface for activator and repressor proteins to transmit information from regulatory DNA elements to core promoters []. MED16 is a key component in acclimatization of plants to freezing temperatures []. |
