TAF5 Antibodies

TFIID is a general transcription factor which initiates preinitiation complex assembly through direct interaction with the TATA promoter element. It is a multisubunit complex consisting of a small TATA-binding polypeptide andother TATA-binding protein (TBP)-associated factors (TAFs). Although native TFIID can mediate both activator-independent (basal) and activator-dependent transcription in reconstituted systems, TBP can mediate only basal transcription. TAF II p100 (TBP-associated factor II100), also known as TAF5 or TAFII100, is the third largest subunit of human TFIID. It contains six WD40 repeats at the C-terminus and has an N-terminus capable of forming a flexible dimer. TAF ...
