Query author contributions in Reactome

Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.

If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

commentFUNCTION The TFIID basal transcription factor complex plays a major role in the initiation of RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-dependent transcription (PubMed:33795473). TFIID recognizes and binds promoters with or without a TATA box via its subunit TBP, a TATA-box-binding protein, and promotes assembly of the pre-initiation complex (PIC) (PubMed:33795473). The TFIID complex consists of TBP and TBP-associated factors (TAFs), including TAF1, TAF2, TAF3, TAF4, TAF5, TAF6, TAF7, TAF8, TAF9, TAF10, TAF11, TAF12 and TAF13 (PubMed:33795473). Component of the TATA-binding protein-free TAF complex (TFTC), the PCAF histone acetylase complex and the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex (PubMed:10373431, PubMed:7729427, PubMed:8598932, PubMed:8663456, PubMed:9674425, PubMed:9885574).SUBUNIT Component of the TFIID basal transcription factor complex, composed of TATA-box-binding protein TBP, and a number of TBP-associated factors (TAFs), including TAF1, TAF2, TAF3, TAF4, TAF5, TAF6, TAF7, TAF8, TAF9, TAF10, TAF11, TAF12 and TAF13 (PubMed:33795473). Component of the TATA-binding protein-free TAF complex (TFTC), the PCAF histone acetylase complex and the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex (PubMed:10373431, PubMed:10594036, PubMed:11564863, PubMed:9885574). Component of the PCAF complex, at least composed of TADA2L/ADA2, TADA3L/ADA3, TAF5L/PAF65-beta, SUPT3H, TAF6L, TAF9, TAF10, TAF12 and TRRAP (PubMed:9885574). Component of the STAGA transcription coactivator-HAT complex, at least composed of SUPT3H, GCN5L2, TAF5L, TAF6L, STAF65-gamma/SUPT7L, TADA3L, TAD1L, TAF10, TAF12, TRRAP and TAF9 (PubMed:10594036, PubMed:11564863). Interacts with ATF7 (via the transactivation domain); the interaction is prevented by sumoylation of ATF7 (PubMed:15735663).SUBUNIT Interacts with TBP; the interaction is direct (PubMed:7729427). Interacts with TAF10; the interaction is direct (PubMed:7729427). Interacts with ATF7, promoting transactivation by ATF7 (PubMed:15735663).SUBUNIT Does not promote the transactivation of ATF7.INTERACTION Ubiquitous.SIMILARITY Belongs to the TAF12 family.
