Function
| Annotated function |
Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in
the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent
genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene-
specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II
transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by direct
interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the
assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II
and the general transcription factors.
