[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TBP_HUMAN TBP_HUMAN]] Defects in TBP are the cause of spinocerebellar ataxia type 17 (SCA17) [MIM:[http://omim.org/entry/607136 607136]]. Spinocerebellar ataxia is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of cerebellar disorders. Patients show progressive incoordination of gait and often poor coordination of hands, speech and eye movements, due to degeneration of the cerebellum with variable involvement of the brainstem and spinal cord. SCA17 is an autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia (ADCA) characterized by widespread cerebral and cerebellar atrophy, dementia and extrapyramidal signs. The molecular defect in SCA17 is the expansion of a CAG repeat in the coding region of TBP. Longer expansions result in earlier onset and more severe clinical manifestations of the disease.<ref>PMID:11313753</ref> <ref>PMID:11448935</ref> <ref>PMID:11939898</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==

RNA polymerase II-dependent transcription requires the assembly of a multi-protein, preinitiation complex on core promoter elements. Transcription factor IID (TFIID) comprising the TATA box-binding protein (TBP) and TBP-associated factors (TAFs) is responsible for promoter recognition in this complex. Subsequent association of TFIIA and TFIIB provides enhanced complex stability. TFIIA is required for transcriptional stimulation by certain viral and cellular activators, and favors formation of the preinitiation complex in the presence of repressor NC2. The X-ray structures of human and yeast TBP/TFIIA/DNA complexes at 2.1A and 1.9A resolution, respectively, are presented here and seen to resemble each other closely. The interactions made by human TFIIA with TBP and DNA within and upstream of the TATA box, including those involving water molecules, are described and compared to the yeast structure. Of particular interest is a previously unobserved region of TFIIA that extends the binding interface with TBP in the yeast, but not in the human complex, and that further elucidates biochemical and genetic results.
