Protein
Transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 9B
Organism
Rattus norvegicus
Function
Essential for cell viability. TAF9 and TAF9L 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 (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the TAF9 family.
