Publication Abstract from PubMed
Determination of the crystal structure of the human TBP-associated factor (hTAF(II))28/hTAF(II)18 heterodimer shows that these TAF(II)s form a novel histone-like pair in the TFIID complex. The histone folds in hTAF(II)28 and hTAF(II)18 were not predicted from their primary sequence, indicating that these TAF(II)s define a novel family of atypical histone fold sequences. The TAF(II)18 and TAF(II)28 histone fold motifs are also present in the N- and C-terminal regions of the SPT3 proteins, suggesting that the histone fold in SPT3 may be reconstituted by intramolecular rather than classical intermolecular interactions. The existence of additional histone-like pairs in both the TFIID and SAGA complexes shows that the histone fold is a more commonly used motif for mediating TAF-TAF interactions than previously believed.
Human TAF(II)28 and TAF(II)18 interact through a histone fold encoded by atypical evolutionary conserved motifs also found in the SPT3 family.,Birck C, Poch O, Romier C, Ruff M, Mengus G, Lavigne AC, Davidson I, Moras D Cell. 1998 Jul 24;94(2):239-49. PMID:9695952[1]
