GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 1588072
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Taf4
Name: TATA-box binding protein associated factor 4
Acc ID: GO:0005669
Term: transcription factor TFIID complex
Definition: A complex composed of TATA binding protein (TBP) and TBP associated factors (TAFs); the total mass is typically about 800 kDa. Most of the TAFs are conserved across species. In TATA-containing promoters for RNA polymerase II (Pol II), TFIID is believed to recognize at least two distinct elements, the TATA element and a downstream promoter element. TFIID is also involved in recognition of TATA-less Pol II promoters. Binding of TFIID to DNA is necessary but not sufficient for transcription initiation from most RNA polymerase II promoters.

Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
