Abstract excerpt
The general transcription factor TFIIE plays important roles at two distinct but sequential steps in transcription as follows: preinitiation complex formation and activation (open complex formation), and the transition from initiation to elongation. The large subunit of human TFIIE (TFIIEalpha) binds to and facilitates the enzymatic functions of TFIIH, but TFIIE also functions independently from TFIIH. To...
