TATA-Binding Protein
FunctionTATA-Binding Protein (TBP) binds to TATA box in DNA and is part of the RNA polymerase II transcription complex. The transcription factor proteins are named TFIIA to TFIIH. TBP is part of TFIID. Its interaction with DNA initiates the DNA strands separation[1]. Called the TATA box to represent its thymine-adenine-thymine-adenine-adenine (TATAA) nucleotide motif.

Structural highlightsinteract with the phosphate groups The interactions of TBP with the DNA TATA box occurs with the minor groove of the DNA. The DNA duplex is bent in a sharp angle and most interactions are non-polar of hydrophobic[3].
