[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TAF2_HUMAN TAF2_HUMAN] Transcription factor TFIID is one of the general factors required for accurate and regulated initiation by RNA polymerase II. TFIID is a multimeric protein complex that plays a central role in mediating promoter responses to various activators and repressors. It requires core promoter-specific cofactors for productive transcription stimulation. TAF2 stabilizes TFIID binding to core promoter.<ref>PMID:9418870</ref> <ref>PMID:9774672</ref> | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TAF2_HUMAN TAF2_HUMAN] Transcription factor TFIID is one of the general factors required for accurate and regulated initiation by RNA polymerase II.

| + | The general transcription factor IID (TFIID) is a critical component of the eukaryotic transcription preinitiation complex (PIC) and is responsible for recognizing the core promoter DNA and initiating PIC assembly. We used cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), chemical crosslinking-mass spectrometry (CX-MS) and biochemical reconstitution to determine the complete molecular architecture of TFIID and define the conformational landscape of TFIID in the process of TATA-box binding protein (TBP) loading onto promoter DNA. Our structural analysis revealed five structural states of TFIID in the presence of TFIIA and promoter DNA, showing that the initial binding of TFIID to the downstream promoter positions the upstream DNA and facilitates scanning of TBP for a TATA-box and the subsequent engagement of the promoter. Our findings provide a mechanistic model for the specific loading of TBP by TFIID onto the promoter. | ||
