What is Characterization of a ripening-related transcription factor FcNAC1 from Fragaria chiloensis fruit about?
__Fragaria chiloensis__ is a strawberry endemic from Chile with attractive white-pink fruit, pleasant aroma and taste. However, this fruit has a limited post-harvest period due to fast softening. Several transcription factors (TFs) are involved in the regulation of fruit ripening, and members of the NAC family have been implicated in cell wall remodeling. __FcNAC1__ was isolated from __F__. __chiloensis__ fruit, coding a protein of 332 amino acid residues and displaying a characteristic NAC domain at the N terminus. FcNAC1 protein showed nuclear localization. An increase in transcript level was observed during ripening. A sequence of 1488 bp of __FcNAC1__ promoter was obtained. __In silico__ analysis identified __cis__ elements able to respond to some hormones and Secondary wall NAC binding elements (SNBE), and responding to auxin and ABA. A structural model of FcNAC1 provided evidence for interaction with DNA sequences containing SNBE, while a dual luciferase assay confirmed the transcriptional activation by FcNAC1 of the promoter of __FcPL__, a gene involved in cell wall remodeling in __F__. __chiloensis__ fruit. The results suggest the participation of FcNAC1 during ripening dev
