TFIIA–TAF regulatory interplay: NMR evidence for overlapping binding sites on TBP
Bibliographic record
Abstract
TATA box binding protein (TBP)-promoter interaction nucleates assembly of the RNA polymerase II transcription initiation complex. Transcription factor IIA (TFIIA) stabilizes the TBP-promoter complex whereas the N-terminal domain of the largest TAF(II) inhibits TBP-promoter interaction. We have mapped the interaction sites on TBP of Drosophila TAF(II)230 and yeast TFIIA (comprising two subunits, TOA1 and TOA2), using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and also report structural evidence that subdomain II of the TAF(II)230 N-terminal inhibitory domain and TFIIA have overlapping binding sites on the convex surface of TBP. Together with previous mutational and biochemical data, our NMR results indicate that subdomain II augments subdomain I-mediated inhibition of TBP function by blocking TBP-TFIIA interaction.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
