Description: Homo sapiens TAF6 RNA polymerase II, TATA box binding protein (TBP)-associated factor, 80kDa (TAF6), transcript variant 6, non-coding RNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_139315): Initiation of transcription by RNA polymerase II requires the activities of more than 70 polypeptides. The protein that coordinates these activities is transcription factor IID (TFIID), which binds to the core promoter to position the polymerase properly, serves as the scaffold for assembly of the remainder of the transcription complex, and acts as a channel for regulatory signals. TFIID is composed of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and a group of evolutionarily conserved proteins known as TBP-associated factors or TAFs. TAFs may participate in basal transcription, serve as coactivators, function in promoter recognition or modify general transcription factors (GTFs) to facilitate complex assembly and transcription initiation. This gene encodes one of the smaller subunits of TFIID that binds weakly to TBP but strongly to TAF1, the largest subunit of TFIID. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ID:TAF6_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 6; AltName: Full=RNA polymerase II TBP-associated factor subunit E; AltName: Full=Transcription initiation factor TFIID 70 kDa subunit; Short=TAF(II)70; Short=TAFII-70; Short=TAFII70; AltName: Full=Transcription initiation factor TFIID 80 kDa subunit; Short=TAF(II)80; Short=TAFII-80; Short=TAFII80; FUNCTION: TAFs are components of the transcription factor IID (TFIID) complex, PCAF histone acetylase complex and TBP-free TAFII complex (TFTC). TIIFD is multimeric protein complex that plays a central role in mediating promoter responses to various activators and repressors. SUBUNIT: TFIID and PCAF are composed of TATA binding protein (TBP) and a number of TBP-associated factors (TAFs). TBP is not part of TFTC. Interacts directly with TBP, TAF1/TAFII250, TAF9/TAFII31 AND TAF12/TAFII20. The TAF6/TAFII70-TAF9/TAFII31 heterodimer forms an octamer complex with the TAF4B/TFII105-TAF12/TFIID20 heterodimer. Component of some MLL1/MLL complex, at least composed of the core components MLL, ASH2L, HCFC1/HCF1, WDR5 and RBBP5, as well as the facultative components C17orf49, CHD8, E2F6, HSP70, INO80C, KANSL1, LAS1L, MAX, MCRS1, MGA, MYST1/MOF, PELP1, PHF20, PRP31, RING2, RUVB1/TIP49A, RUVB2/TIP49B, SENP3, TAF1, TAF4, TAF6, TAF7, TAF9 and TEX10. Also interacts with the GTFs, TFIIEalpha/GTF2E1 and TFIIFalpha/GTF2F1. Component of the TFTC-HAT complex. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the TAF6 family.

The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
