Protein Domain : Transcription factor IIIC subunit Tfc1/Sfc1

Primary Identifier  IPR040454 Type  Family
Short Name  TF_IIIC_Tfc1/Sfc1
description  Transcription factor IIIC (TFIIIC) is a multisubunit DNA binding factor that serves as a dynamic platform for assembly of pre-initiation complexes on class III genes. This entry represents subunit Tfc1/Sfc1 (also known as the tau 95 subunit) which holds a key position in TFIIIC, exerting both upstream and downstream influence on the TFIIIC-DNA complex by rendering the complex more stable []. Once bound to tDNA-intragenic promoter elements, TFIIIC directs the assembly of TFIIIB on the DNA, which in turn recruits the RNA polymerase III (pol III) and activates multiple rounds of transcription.
