Immunogens

Immunogen:

A synthesized peptide derived from human TFAM, corresponding to a region within the internal amino acids.

Gene(ID):
Description:
This gene encodes a key mitochondrial transcription factor containing two high mobility group motifs. The encoded protein also functions in mitochondrial DNA replication and repair. Sequence polymorphisms in this gene are associated with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. There are pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 6, 7, and 11. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Binds to the mitochondrial light strand promoter and functions in mitochondrial transcription regulation. Component of the mitochondrial transcription initiation complex, composed at least of TFB2M, TFAM and POLRMT that is required for basal transcription of mitochondrial DNA. In this complex, TFAM recruits POLRMT to a specific promoter whereas TFB2M induces structural changes in POLRMT to enable promoter opening and trapping of the DNA non-template strand. Required for accurate and efficient promoter recognition by the mitochondrial RNA polymerase. Promotes transcription initiation from the HSP1 and the light strand promoter by binding immediately upstream of transcriptional start sites. Is able to unwind DNA. Bends the mitochondrial light strand promoter DNA into a U-turn shape via its HMG boxes. Required for maintenance of normal levels of mitochondrial DNA. May play a role in organizing and compacting mitochondrial DNA.

PTMs:

Phosphorylation by PKA within the HMG box 1 impairs DNA binding and promotes degradation by the AAA+ Lon protease.

Subcellular Location:

Mitochondrion. Mitochondrion matrix>Mitochondrion nucleoid.

Family&Domains:

Binds DNA via its HMG boxes. When bound to the mitochondrial light strand promoter, bends DNA into a U-turn shape, each HMG box bending the DNA by 90 degrees.
