Background: Control of transcription by RNA polymerase II involves the basal transcription machinery which is a collection of proteins. These proteins with RNA polymerase II, assemble into complexes which are modulated by transactivator proteins that bind to cis-regulatory elements located adjacent to the transcription start site. Some modulators interact directly with the basal complex, whereas others may act as bridging proteins linking transactivators to the basal transcription factors. Some of these associated factors are weakly attached while others are tightly associated with TBP in the TFIID complex. Among the latter are the TAF proteins. Different TAFs are predicted to mediate the function of distinct transcriptional activators for a variety of gene promoters and RNA polymerases. TAF12 interacts directly with TBP as well as with TAF2I. Two transcript variants encoding the same pr
Function:function:TAFs are components of the transcription factor IID (TFIID) complex, PCAF histone acetylase complex and TBP-free TAFII complex (TFTC). TAFs components-TIIFD are essential for mediating regulation of RNA polymerase transcription.,similarity:Belongs to the TAF12 family.,similarity:Contains 1 histone-fold domain.,subunit:TFIID and PCAF are composed of TATA binding protein (TBP) and a number of TBP-associated factors (TAFs). TBP is not part of TFTC. Interacts directly with TBP; additional interactions between TAFII20 and TAFII28 or TAFII30 were detected. Component of the PCAF complex, at least composed of TADA2L/ADA2, TADA3L/ADA3, TAF5L/PAF65-beta, SUPT3H, TAF6L, TAF9, TAF10, TAF12 and TRRAP. Component of the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex, at least composed of SUPT3H, GCN5L2, TAF5L, TAF6L, STAF65-gamma/KIAA0764, TADA3L, TAD1L, TAF10, TAF12, TRRAP and TAF9.,tissue speci
