Gene information for TAF1B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9014
Official gene symbolTAF1B
Full nameTATA box binding protein (TBP)-associated factor, RNA polymerase I, B, 63kDa
Aliases,MGC:9349,RAF1B,RAFI63,SL1,TAFI63,
Gene summaryInitiation of transcription by RNA polymerase I requires the formation of a complex composed of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and three TBP-associated factors (TAFs) specific for RNA polymerase I. This complex, known as SL1, binds to the core promoter of ribosomal RNA genes to position the polymerase properly and acts as a channel for regulatory signals. This gene encodes one of the SL1-specific TAFs. [provided by RefSeq]
