GTF2H2 Proteins and Enzymes

Initiation of transcription from protein-coding genes in eukaryotes is a complex process that requires RNA polymerase II, as well as families of basal transcription factors. Binding of the factor TFIID (TBP) to the TATA box is believed to be the first step in the formation of a multiprotein complex containing several additional factors, including TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIIE, TFIIF and TFII. TFIIH (or BTF2) is a multisubunit transcription/DNA repair factor that possesses several enzymatic activities. ...
