UniProt functional annotation for Q15542

UniProt code: Q15542.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: TAFs are components of the transcription factor IID (TFIID) complex, PCAF histone acetylase complex and TBP-free TAFII complex (TFTC). TAFs components-TIIFD are essential for mediating regulation of RNA polymerase transcription. TAF5/TAFII100 interacts strongly with the histone H4-related TAF6/TAFII80 and the histone H3-related TAF9/TAFII31, as well as a stable complex comprised of both TAF5/TAFII80 and TAF6/TAFII31. Apparently weaker interactions of TAF5/TAFII100 with TBP, TAF1/TAFII250, TAF11/TAFII28, and TAF12/TAFII20, but not TAF7/TAFII55, also have been observed.
 
Subunit: Homodimer. TFIID and PCAF are composed of TATA binding protein (TBP) and a number of TBP-associated factors (TAFs). TBP is not part of TFTC. Component of the TFTC-HAT complex, at least composed of TAF5L, TAF6L, TADA3L, SUPT3H/SPT3, TAF2/TAFII150, TAF4/TAFII135, TAF5/TAFII100, GCN5L2/GCN5, TAF10 and TRRAP. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10373431, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12601814, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17227857}.
Subunit: (Microbial infection) Interacts with SV40 Large T antigen. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8647434}.
Subcellular location: Nucleus.
Domain: Distinct domains of TAF5/TAFII100 are required for functional interaction with transcription factor TFIIFB (RAP30) and incorporation into the TFIID complex.
Similarity: Belongs to the WD repeat TAF5 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Sequence caution: Sequence=AAC50902.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=BAD97335.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
