| UniProt functional annotation for P23193 | |||
| UniProt code: P23193. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Necessary for efficient RNA polymerase II transcription elongation past template-encoded arresting sites. The arresting sites in DNA have the property of trapping a certain fraction of elongating RNA polymerases that pass through, resulting in locked ternary complexes. Cleavage of the nascent transcript by S-II allows the resumption of elongation from the new 3'-terminus. | |
| Subunit: | Interacts with EAF2 (By similarity). Associates with UBR5 and forms a transcription regulatory complex made of CDK9, RNAP II, UBR5 and TFIIS/TCEA1 that can stimulate target gene transcription (e.g. gamma fibrinogen/FGG) by recruiting their promoters. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21127351}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus. | |
| Disease: | Note=A chromosomal aberration involving TCEA1 may be a cause of salivary gland pleiomorphic adenomas (PA) [181030]. Pleiomorphic adenomas are the most common benign epithelial tumors of the salivary gland. Translocation t(3;8)(p21;q12) with PLAG1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10029085}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | S-II binds to RNA-polymerase II in the absence of transcription. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the TFS-II family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
