Transcription factor IIA has been shown to interact with the TATA-binding protein and to act early during preinitiation complex formation. The human factor is composed of three subunits (alpha, beta, gamma). A human cDNA clone encoding the largest subunit of TFIIA (alpha) was isolated. The recombinant alpha polypeptide, together with the beta and gamma subunits, was capable of reconstituting TFIIA activity. Studies using antibodies raised against recombinant alpha polypeptide demonstrate that TFIIA can be an integral component of the preinitiation complex. We demonstrate that TFIIA not only interacts with TBP but also can associate with the TFIID complex. Functional assays establish that TFIIA has no apparent role in basal transcription but plays an important role in activation of transcription. Interestingly, amino acid sequence analyses of the beta-subunit demonstrate these residues to be entirely contained within the carboxyl terminus of the cDNA clone encoding the alpha-subunit.

Isolation of a cDNA encoding the largest subunit of TFIIA reveals functions important for activated transcription.
