Gene information for GTF2B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2959
Official gene symbolGTF2B
Full namegeneral transcription factor IIB
Aliases,TF2B,TFIIB,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes the general transcription factor IIB, one of the ubiquitous factors required for transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II. The protein localizes to the nucleus where it forms a complex (the DAB complex) with transcription factors IID and IIA. Transcription factor IIB serves as a bridge between IID, the factor which initially recognizes the promoter sequence, and RNA polymerase II. [provided by RefSeq]
