Primary Accession | Q92759 |
Reactivity | Rat, Pig, Dog, Bovine |
Host | Rabbit |
Clonality | Polyclonal |
Calculated MW | 52 KDa |
Physical State | Liquid |
Immunogen | KLH conjugated synthetic peptide derived from human GTF2H4 |
Epitope Specificity | 381-462/462 |
Isotype | IgG |
Purity | affinity purified by Protein A |
Buffer | 0.01M TBS (pH7.4) with 1% BSA, 0.02% Proclin300 and 50% Glycerol. |
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Colocalizes with BTK in the cytoplasm. |
SIMILARITY | Belongs to the TFII-I family. Contains 6 GTF2I-like repeats. |
Post-translational modifications | Transiently phosphorylated on tyrosine residues by BTK in response to B-cell receptor stimulation. Phosphorylation on Tyr-248 and Tyr-398, and perhaps, on Tyr-503 contributes to BTK-mediated transcriptional activation. Sumoylated. |
DISEASE | Note=GTF2I is located in the Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) critical region. WBS results from a hemizygous deletion of several genes on chromosome 7q11.23, thought to arise as a consequence of unequal crossing over between highly homologous low-copy repeat sequences flanking the deleted region. Haploinsufficiency of GTF2I may be the cause of certain cardiovascular and musculo-skeletal abnormalities observed in the disease. |
Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
Background Descriptions | TFII I is a ubiquitously expressed multifunctional transcription factor with broad biological roles in transcription and signal transduction in a variety of cell types. It has been shown that TFII I can interact physically and functionally with Btk (Bruton's tyrosine kinase), a hematopoietic non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase that is critical for B lymphocyte development. |

Function | Component of the general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH (TFIIH) core complex, which is involved in general and transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (NER) of damaged DNA and, when complexed to CAK, in RNA transcription by RNA polymerase II. In NER, TFIIH acts by opening DNA around the lesion to allow the excision of the damaged oligonucleotide and its replacement by a new DNA fragment. In transcription, TFIIH has an essential role in transcription initiation. When the pre-initiation complex (PIC) has been established, TFIIH is required for promoter opening and promoter escape. Phosphorylation of the C-terminal tail (CTD) of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II by the kinase module CAK controls the initiation of transcription. |
