IPR037813

Description

IPR037813 is a Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 2.

<p>Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 2 (TAF2) is a component of the general purpose transcription factor complex TFIID [[cite:PUB00087656], [cite:PUB00087622]]. This entry includes TAF2 from animals, plants and fungi.</p> <p>The DNA-binding general transcription factor complex TFIID is central to the initiation of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase II transcription. TFIID is the only general transcription initiation factor that bind to the TATA box. The binding of TFIID to the TATA-box is the first step in the formation of a complex able to initiate transcription [[cite:PUB00087636]]. TFIID consists of the TATA binding protein (TBP) and 14 TBP-associated factors (TAFs). One copy of each TAF1, TAF2, TAF3, TAF7, TAF8, TAF11, TAF13, two copies of each TAF4, TAF5, TAF6, TAF9, TAF10, TAF12, and three copies of TAF14 [[cite:PUB00087622]].</p>

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Cellular component Transcription factor TFIID complex A complex composed of TATA binding protein (TBP) and TBP associated factors (TAFs); the total mass is typically about 800 kDa. Most of the TAFs are conserved across species. In TATA-containing promoters for RNA polymerase II (Pol II), TFIID is believed to recognize at least two distinct elements, the TATA element and a downstream promoter element. TFIID is also involved in recognition of TATA-less Pol II promoters. Binding of TFIID to DNA is necessary but not sufficient for transcription initiation from most RNA polymerase II promoters.
