NCIt definition : Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 12 TAFII15 (131 aa, 15 kDa) is encoded
by the human TAF12 gene. This protein plays a role in the regulation of both histone
acetylation and gene transcription.;
NCIt note : TBP-Associated Factor 15 kDa, similar to Histones H2B and H3, are components of the
TFIID complex essential for regulation of transcription. A component of the PCAF complex
and the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex, TAF12 interacts directly with
TBP and TAF11, as well as with TAFII20 and TAFII30.;
