Bacteriol. 190:2957-2965(2008). CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcription factor that plays a role in the activation of CC archaeal genes transcribed by RNA polymerase. Facilitates transcription CC initiation by enhancing TATA-box recognition by TATA-box-binding CC protein (Tbp), and transcription factor B (Tfb) and RNA polymerase CC recruitment. Not absolutely required for transcription in vitro, but CC particularly important in cases where Tbp or Tfb function is not CC optimal. It dynamically alters the nucleic acid-binding properties of CC RNA polymerases by stabilizing the initiation complex and destabilizing CC elongation complexes. Seems to translocate with the RNA polymerase CC following initiation and acts by binding to the non template strand of CC the transcription bubble in elongation complexes. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_01909}. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Monomer. Interaction with RNA polymerase subunits RpoF and CC RpoE is necessary for Tfe stimulatory transcription activity. Able to CC interact with Tbp and RNA polymerase in the absence of DNA promoter. CC Interacts both with the preinitiation and elongation complexes. CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01909}. CC -!- DOMAIN: The winged helix domain is involved in binding to DNA in the CC preinitiation complex. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_01909}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the TFE family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_01909}.
