Ssb-c31a

Gene
Ssb-c31a
Protein
RNA polymerase II transcriptional coactivator
Organism
Drosophila melanogaster
Length
110 amino acids
Function
General coactivator that functions cooperatively with TAFs and mediates functional interactions between upstream activators and the general transcriptional machinery. Binds single-stranded DNA (By similarity). Binds specifically to the NssBF element, a short nucleotide sequence of the 1731 retrotransposon, to repress promoter activity.
Similarity
Belongs to the transcriptional coactivator PC4 family.
