TAF8 cdna clone
TAF8 cDNA Clone
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes one of several TATA-binding protein (TBP)-associated factors (TAFs), which are integral subunits of the general transcription factor complex TFIID. TFIID recognizes the core promoter of many genes and nucleates the assembly of a transcription preinitiation complex containing RNA polymerase II and other initiation factors. The protein encoded by this gene contains an H4-like histone fold domain, and interacts with several subunits of TFIID including TBP and the histone-fold protein TAF10. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
TBN: Transcription factor TFIID is one of the general factors required for accurate and regulated initiation by RNA polymerase II. Mediates both basal and activator-dependent transcription. Plays a role in the differentiation of preadipocyte fibroblasts to adipocytes, however, does not seem to play a role in differentiation of myoblasts. Required for the integration of TAF10 in the TAF complex. May be important for survival of cells of the inner cell mass which constitute the pluripotent cell population of the early embryo. Belongs to the TAF8 family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6p21.1
Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; nucleus; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; transcription factor TFIID complex
Molecular Function: protein binding
Biological Process: maintenance of protein localization in nucleus; positive regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; regulation of fat cell differentiation; snRNA transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "TAF8, cDNA Clone" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
