Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the genes for two highly conserved TAFs, TAF(II)60 and TAF(II)110, reduce transcription of Bicoid-dependent target genes in vivo. By means of several distinct genetic test systems, specific activator-TAF interactions are shown to support both simple and synergistic enhancement of transcription in the embryo. These studies provide in vivo evidence that TAFs can serve as coactivators to receive...
