Recombinant human GTF2E2 protein
GTF2E2, also known as TFIIE, is essential for transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II in conjunction with other general factors. TFIIE is a heterotetramer containing two subunits of relative molecular mass 57, 000 (TFIIE-alpha) and two of 34, 000 (TFIIE-beta) . TFIIE-beta is required in conjunction with TFIIE-alpha for transcription initiation. GTF2E2 recruits TFIIH to the initiation complex and stimulates the RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain kinase and DNA-dependent ATPase activities of TFIIH. Both TFIIH and TFIIE are required for promoter clearance by RNA polymerase. Recombinant human GTF2E2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.
