TFII I


The interaction between “basal machinery and upstream activators” can be assisted by the binding of TFII-I to the “core promoter element” known as Inr and the “upstream elements” (Roy, 2001).  TFII-I is composed of six I-repeats (R1-R6); each repeat has a helix-loop-helix motif with one basic region at R2 (Cheriyath and Roy, 2001 and Roy, 2001).  Recent experiments showed that there are four different isoforms of TFII-II (Cheriyath and Roy, 2001).  Each isoform can regulate and promote DNA transcription from the c-fos promoters by binding to the DNA (Cheriyath and Roy, 2001).
