NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Control of transcription by RNA polymerase II involves the basal transcription machinery which is a collection of proteins. These proteins with RNA polymerase II, assemble into complexes which are modulated by transactivator proteins that bind to cis-regulatory elements located adjacent to the transcription start site. Some modulators interact directly with the basal complex, whereas others may act as bridging proteins linking transactivators to the basal transcription factors. Some of these associated factors are weakly attached while others are tightly associated with TBP in the TFIID complex. Among the latter are the TAF proteins. Different TAFs are predicted to mediate the function of distinct transcriptional activators for a variety of gene promoters and RNA polymerases. TAF12 interacts directly with TBP as well as with TAF2I. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]
Uniprot Description
TAF12: TAFs are components of the transcription factor IID (TFIID) complex, PCAF histone acetylase complex and TBP-free TAFII complex (TFTC). TAFs components-TIIFD are essential for mediating regulation of RNA polymerase transcription. Belongs to the TAF12 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative initiation.
Protein type: Transcription initiation complex
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1p35.3
Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; transcription factor TFIID complex
Molecular Function: DNA binding; protein binding; TATA-binding protein binding; transcription factor activity; transcription factor binding
Biological Process: positive regulation of transcription factor activity; RNA elongation from RNA polymerase II promoter; transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; transcription initiation; transcription initiation from RNA polymerase II promoter; transcriptional preinitiation complex assembly

Product Notes
The TAF12 taf12 (Catalog #AAA5307457) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's TAF12 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the TAF12 taf12 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "TAF12, Monoclonal Antibody" 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
