Summary: Enables several functions, including TBP-class protein binding activity; chromatin binding activity; and histone acetyltransferase activity. Involved in RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex assembly. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Part of transcription factor TFIID complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism and syndromic X-linked intellectual disability. Orthologous to several human genes including TAF1L (TATA-box binding protein associated factor 1 like). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Depletion or inactivation of Kin28 results in increased occupancy of Taf1 and Taf4 at promoters genome-wide.
Title: Kin28 depletion increases association of TFIID subunits Taf1 and Taf4 with promoters in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
a specific effect of a Taf1 mutation on Taf2 occupancy that may reflect the spatial relationship between Taf1 and Taf2 within TFIID
Title: Genome-wide localization analysis of a complete set of Tafs reveals a specific effect of the taf1 mutation on Taf2 occupancy and provides indirect evidence for different TFIID conformations at different promoters.
Finding might reflect the need for each region of TAF1 to stabilize TAF1 against degradation or may indicate that all TAF1-dependent genes require the many activities of TAF1.
Title: Genome-wide transcriptional dependence on TAF1 functional domains.
the Ccr4-Not complex independently controls TFIID promoter distribution and Msn2-dependent trans-activation through a process involving a Glc7/Bud14 phosphatase
Title: The Ccr4-Not complex independently controls both Msn2-dependent transcriptional activation--via a newly identified Glc7/Bud14 type I protein phosphatase module--and TFIID promoter distribution.
We show that Anc1 is required for growth on galactose as the sole carbon source, and that it is recruited to the UAS of the GAL1 gene after induction.
Title: Anc1 interacts with the catalytic subunits of the general transcription factors TFIID and TFIIF, the chromatin remodeling complexes RSC and INO80, and the histone acetyltransferase complex NuA3.
Rap1p and TFIID directly interact and this interaction contributes importantly to RP gene transcription
Title: Yeast TFIID serves as a coactivator for Rap1p by direct protein-protein interaction.
Data demonstrate functional links between SAGA, Mot1p, and TFIID in HXT gene regulation.
Title: Differential requirement of SAGA subunits for Mot1p and Taf1p recruitment in gene activation.
This study provides evidence for linkage between TAF1 and the H4 HAT Esa1 through Bdf1.
Title: Genome-wide relationships between TAF1 and histone acetyltransferases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
