General annotation (Comments)

Function

Essential for cell viability. TAF9 and TAF9B are involved in transcriptional activation as well as repression of distinct but overlapping sets of genes. May have a role in gene regulation associated with apoptosis. TAFs are components of the transcription factor IID (TFIID) complex, the TBP-free TAFII complex (TFTC), the PCAF histone acetylase complex and the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex. TFIID or TFTC are essential for the regulation of RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription. Ref.14

Subunit structure

Component of TFIID, the TATA-binding protein-free TAF complex (TFTC), the PCAF complex and the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex. The PCAF complex consists at least of TADA2L/ADA2, SUPT3H/SPT3, TADA3L/ADA3, TAF5L/PAF65-beta, TAF6L/PAF65-alpha, TAF10/TAFII30, TAF12/TAFII20, TAF9/TAFII31 and TRRAP. The STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex consists at least of SUPT3H, GCN5L2, SUPT7L, TAF5L, TAF6L, TADA3L, TAD1L, TAF10, TAF12, TRRAP and TAF9. Binds N-terminal domain of p53/TP53 which is essential for transcription. Component of some MLL1/MLL complex, at least composed of the core components MLL, ASH2L, HCFC1/HCF1, WDR5 and RBBP5, as well as the facultative components C17orf49, CHD8, E2F6, HSP70, IN80C, KIAA1267, LAS1L, MAX, MCRS1, MGA, MYST1/MOF, PELP1, PHF20, PRP31, RING2, RUVB1/TIP49A, RUVB2/TIP49B, SENP3, TAF1, TAF4, TAF6, TAF7, TAF9 and TEX10. Binds TFIIB and the Herpes simplex virus activator VP16. Forms a heterodimer with TAF6/TAFII80 in a complex with the TAF4B/TAFII105-TAF12/TAFII20 heterodimer. Also interacts with TAF5. Binds directly DNA. Increased DNA binding when complexed with TAF6/TAFII80. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.8 Ref.13 Ref.14

Subcellular location

Nucleus Ref.8 Ref.9.

Induction

6 to 8-fold by apoptotic signals. Ref.14

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]

Note: Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are produced by the same gene but are translated from different initiation codons and use different reading frames so they display no identity in their protein sequences. This arrangement is conserved in mammals but these proteins are produced by separate genes in non-mammalian species.
Isoform 2 (identifier: Q16594-1)

Also known as: TAF9;

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q9Y3D8-1)

Also known as: AK6;

The sequence of this isoform can be found in the external entry Q9Y3D8.
Isoforms of the same protein are often annotated in two different entries if their sequences differ significantly.
Isoform 3 (identifier: Q9Y3D8-2)

The sequence of this isoform can be found in the external entry Q9Y3D8.
Isoforms of the same protein are often annotated in two different entries if their sequences differ significantly.
