General annotation (Comments)

Function

Cell type-specific subunit of TFIID that may function as a gene-selective coactivator in certain cells. TFIID is a multimeric protein complex that plays a central role in mediating promoter responses to various activators and repressors. TAFII105 is a transcriptional coactivator of the p65/RELA NF-kappa-B subunit. Involved in the activation of a subset of antiapoptotic genes including TNFAIP3. May be involved in regulating folliculogenesis. Through interaction with OCBA/POU2AF1, acts as a coactivator of B cell-specific transcription. Ref.1 Ref.3 Ref.4

Subunit structure

TFIID is composed of TATA binding protein (TBP) and a number of TBP-associated factors (TAFs). Heterodimerizes with TAF12/TFII20 via the C-terminal H2A-like histone-fold domain. This heterodimer forms a histone-like octamer with the TAF6/TAFII70-TAF9/TAFII31 heterodimer. Interacts with P65/RELA homodimers and P65/RELA-REL heterodimers. Interaction with POU2AF1, via its C-terminal activation domain, is required for octamer-dependent transcription. Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.6

Subcellular location

Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note: Export into the cytoplasm is mediated by a CRM1-independent nuclear export pathway and not by phosphorylation. Ref.1 Ref.5

Tissue specificity

Preferentially expressed in ovarian granulosa cells (at protein level). Highly expressed in B cells. Ref.1 Ref.2

Post-translational modification

Under stimulation by forskolin, Isoform 1 is phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA). Ref.1 Ref.7

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the TAF4 family.

Contains 1 histone-fold domain.

Contains 1 TAFH (NHR1) domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q92750-1)

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 2 (identifier: Q92750-2)

Also known as: TAFII105-E9;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     612-618: DEDDIND → STFICVY
     619-862: Missing.
Note: May be due to exon inclusion. No experimental confirmation available. Unphosphorylated form.
