| UniProt functional annotation for P52655 | |||
| UniProt code: P52655. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | TFIIA is a component of the transcription machinery of RNA polymerase II and plays an important role in transcriptional activation. TFIIA in a complex with TBP mediates transcriptional activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11030333, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16537915}. | |
| Subunit: | TFIIA is a heterodimer of the large unprocessed subunit 1 and a small subunit gamma. It was originally believed to be a heterotrimer of an alpha (p35), a beta (p19) and a gamma subunit (p12). TFIIA forms a complex with TBP. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11030333}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus. | |
| Ptm: | The alpha and beta subunits are postranslationally produced from the precursor form by TASP1. The cleavage promotes proteasomal degradation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16537915}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the TFIIA subunit 1 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
