Function
- general transcription factor
- binds to TATA box
- required for transcription whether or not TATA box is present
Structure
- previously described TFIID species either lack or contain TAFII30 (TFIID alpha & TFIID beta respectively)
- TFIID has 13-14 subunits[3]
More general terms
- general transcription factor (basal transcription factor, transcription initiation factor)
- DNA-binding protein
- multisubunit protein
