Abstract excerpt
We show that the yeast TFIID (yTFIID) component yTAF(II)47 contains a histone fold domain (HFD) with homology to that previously described for hTAF(II)135. Complementation in vivo indicates that the yTAF(II)47 HFD is necessary and sufficient for vegetative growth. Mutation of highly conserved residues in the alpha1 helix of the yTAF(II)47 HFD results in a temperature-sensitive phenotype which can be suppressed by...
