High impact information on TAF7

  • Deletion of Bdf1 or the Taf67 Bdf-interacting domain leads to defects in gene expression [1].
  • Using a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify proteins that interact with Taf67, we isolated Bromodomain factor 1 (Bdf1) and its homolog (Bdf2) [1].
  • Moreover, the N-terminal domain of TAF1 was mapped in lobe C, whereas the histone acetyltransferase domain resides in lobe A along with TAF7 [2].
  • Based on their predicted molecular weights, these genes have been designated TAF67, TAF61(68), TAF40, TAF23(25), TAF19(FUN81), and TAF17 [3].
