TAF11 RNA polymerase II, TATA box binding protein
TAFII, hTAFII28, hTAF(II)28, TAF(II)28
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 a small subunit of TFIID that is present in all TFIID complexes and interacts with TBP. This subunit also interacts with another small subunit, TAF13, to form a heterodimer with a structure similar to the histone core structure. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] (from

Review
In Vestn Otorinolaringol, 2012
At the same time, the number of such patients undergoing surgery for the treatment of toxico-allergic forms (TAF-I and TAF-II) decreased from 26.7 to 8.7-11.6% of their total number admitted to the department for the treatment of pharyngeal pathology.

New York City, United States. In Mol Cell, 2003
Human TFIID contains the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and several TBP-associated factors (hTAFs) that have been shown to play important roles, within TFIID, both in core promoter recognition and as coactivators.
A role of the TATA box and the general co-activator hTAF(II)130/135 in promoter-specific trans-activation by simian virus 40 small t antigen.
Tromsø, Norway. In J Gen Virol, 2003
Overexpressing the general transcription factor hTAF(II)130/135, but not hTAF(II)28 or hTAF(II)80, stimulated the activity of promoters in a consensus TATA box-dependent mode.
Novel subunits of the TATA binding protein free TAFII-containing transcription complex identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry following one-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
Strasbourg, France. In Proteomics, 2003
Initiation of transcription of protein-encoding genes by RNA polymerase II was thought to require the transcription factor II D (TF(II)D), a complex comprising the TATA binding protein (TBP) and TBP-associated factors.
NF-Y recruitment of TFIID, multiple interactions with histone fold TAF(II)s.

hTAF(II)20, hTAF(II)28, and hTAF(II)18-hTAF(II)28 bind to the NF-Y B-NF-YC histone fold dimer; hTAF(II)80 and hTAF(II)31-hTAF(II)80 interact with the trimer but not with the NF-YB-NF-YC dimer.

The TFIID component TAF(II)130 potentiates STAT2 function, but TAF(II)28 or the HAT activity of TAF(II)250 do not, and transcriptional induction can proceed independently of the TATA-binding protein, TBP.

Impact
Strasbourg, France. In Science, 2000
TBP (TATA-binding protein)-associated factors (TAF(II)s) are components of large multiprotein complexes such as TFIID, TFTC, STAGA, PCAF/GCN5, and SAGA, which play a key role in the regulation of gene expression by RNA polymerase II.

The histone folds in hTAF(II)28 and hTAF(II)18 were not predicted from their primary sequence, indicating that these TAF(II)s define a novel family of atypical histone fold sequences.
