S.cerevisiae - Yeastract

Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Taf12p
Description	Subunit (61/68 kDa) of TFIID and SAGA complexes; involved in RNA polymerase II transcription initiation and in chromatin modification, similar to histone H2A; overexpression of the human ortholog, TAF12, an oncogene involved in the formation of choroid plexus carcinomas, results in dosage chromosomal instability (dCIN) in a human cell line similar to the dCIN observed in yeast overexpressors
GO Terms: Biological Process	level 5: chromatin organization level 7: DNA-templated transcription initiation level 7: histone acetylation level 8: transcription by RNA polymerase II level 9: RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex assembly
GO Terms: Molecular Function	level 2: molecular adaptor activity level 3: RNA polymerase II general transcription initiation factor activity level 3: chromatin binding level 5: DNA binding level 5: protein heterodimerization activity level 6: RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding level 6: TBP-class protein binding
GO Terms: Cellular Component	level 5: nucleus level 5: transcription factor TFIID complex level 5: peroxisome level 5: SAGA complex level 6: SLIK (SAGA-like) complex
