Summary: Enables several functions, including RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity; TBP-class protein binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Involved in RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex assembly and chromatin organization. Located in peroxisome. Part of SAGA complex; SLIK (SAGA-like) complex; and transcription factor TFIID complex. Orthologous to human TAF12 (TATA-box binding protein associated factor 12). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

NP_010429.1

Subunit (61/68 kDa) of TFIID and SAGA complexes; involved in RNA polymerase II transcription initiation and in chromatin modification, similar to histone H2A; overexpression of the human ortholog, TAF12, an oncogene involved in the formation of choroid plexus carcinomas, results in dosage chromosomal instability (dCIN) in a human cell line similar to the dCIN observed in yeast overexpressors
