Abstract excerpt
The adenovirus large E1A protein is a potent activator of transcription. We use several different experimental approaches to demonstrate that the large E1A protein binds specifically and stably to the TATA box-binding factor (TFIID), the general polymerase II transcription factor that initiates assembly of transcription complexes. Sedimentation velocity centrifugation revealed that TFIID and E1A form a...
