Multivalent engagement of TFIID to nucleosomes.

The process of eukaryotic transcription initiation involves the assembly of basal transcription factor complexes on the gene promoter. The recruitment of TFIID is an early and important step in this process. Gene promoters contain distinct DNA sequence elements and are marked by the presence of post...

description The process of eukaryotic transcription initiation involves the assembly of basal transcription factor complexes on the gene promoter.

The contributions of these individual features for TFIID recruitment remain to be elucidated. Here, we use immobilized reconstituted promoter nucleosomes, conventional biochemistry and quantitative mass spectrometry to investigate the influence of distinct histone modifications and functional DNA-elements on the binding of TFIID. Our data reveal synergistic effects of H3K4me3, H3K14ac and a TATA box sequence on TFIID binding in vitro.
