NCBI Description
Accurate transcription initiation on TATA-containing class II genes involves the ordered assembly of RNA polymerase II (POLR2A; MIM 180660) and several general initiation factors (summarized by DeJong and Roeder, 1993 [PubMed 8224848]). One of these factors is TFIIA, which when purified from HeLa extracts consists of 35-, 19-, and 12-kD subunits.[supplied by OMIM, Jul 2010]
Uniprot Description
GTF2A1: a general transcription factor that plays an important role in transcriptional activation. A component of the transcription machinery of RNA polymerase II. Phosphorylated by Taf(II) 250 on serines that regulate TBP binding. Interacts with TBP (the TATA-binding protein). Two isoforms, 42 kDa and 37 kDa, are produced by alternative initiation.
Protein type: Transcription, coactivator/corepressor
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 14q31.1
Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; cytoplasm; transcription factor TFIIA complex
Molecular Function: protein binding; DNA binding; TATA-binding protein binding; protein heterodimerization activity; transcription coactivator activity; transcription factor binding
Biological Process: transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; transcription initiation from RNA polymerase II promoter; viral reproduction; regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; RNA elongation from RNA polymerase II promoter; gene expression
Product Notes
The GTF2A1 gtf2a1 (Catalog #
AAA601212) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Transcription Factor IIA, alpha, beta, gamma (TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIIG) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Transcription Factor IIA, alpha, beta, gamma can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EL/EIA). Suitable for use in ELISA. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GTF2A1 gtf2a1 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
"Transcription Factor IIA, alpha, beta, gamma, 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.
