Transcription factor IIIA TFIIIA

The Xenopus 5S RNA gene-specific transcription factor IIIA (TFIIIA) was the first zinc finger protein characterized one decade ago (Klug and Rhodes 1987 Berg 1990 Rhodes and Klug 1993). This protein specifically binds to... [Pg.333]

Aaron Klug discovered the first of the eukaryotic DNA-binding motifs in Xenopus transcription factor IIIA (TFlllA), a protein which binds to the 5S rRNA gene. The resulting complex subsequently binds two other transcription factors and RNA polymerase III, which leads to the initiation of transcription of the 5S rRNA gene. The TFIIIA molecule contains 9 similar 30-residue-long, tandemly repeated modules. Each of these modules contains two invariant Cys residues, two invariant His residues, and several conserved hydrophobic residues (Figure 12.19), and a Zn + ion, which is tetrahedrally coordinated by the invariant Cys and His... [Pg.244]
