Tbp | TATA binding protein (Tbp) encodes a basal transcription factor required at most RNA Pol I and Pol II-transcribed genes. Traditionally thought to be recruited only to TATA box containing promoters, recent work shows that promoters with very weak TATA box consensus sequences also recruit the product of Tbp as a part of the multisubunit TFIID basal transcription factor or via the SAGA histone acetyltransferase complex.

AGO3 | Protein argonaute-3; Acts via the piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) metabolic process, which mediates the repression of transposable elements during meiosis by forming complexes composed of piRNAs and Piwi proteins and governs the methylation and subsequent repression of transposons. Directly binds piRNAs, a class of 24 to 30 nucleotide RNAs that are generated by a Dicer-independent mechanism and are primarily derived from transposons and other repeated sequence elements. Associates predominantly with sense piRNAs that contain adenine at nucleotide 10, but shows no preference for uridine at [...] (867 aa) |
