Protein existence	Evidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	TFIIA is a component of the transcription machinery of RNA polymerase II and plays an important role in transcriptional activation. TFIIA in a complex with TBP mediates transcriptional activity. Ref.6 Ref.10
Subunit structure	TFIIA is a heterodimer of the large unprocessed subunit 1 and a small subunit gamma. It was originally believed to be a heterotrimer of an alpha (p35), a beta (p19) and a gamma subunit (p12). TFIIA forms a complex with TBP. Ref.6
Subcellular location	Nucleus.
Post-translational modification	The alpha and beta subunits are postranslationally produced from the precursor form by TASP1. The cleavage promotes proteasomal degradation.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the TFIIA subunit 1 family.
