transcription factor IIIB 90 kD subunit; TFIIIB90; hTFIIIB90; B-related factor 1; BRF-1; hBRF; TAF3B2; TATA box-binding protein-associated factor, RNA polymerase III, subunit 2 (BRF1, BRF, GTF3B, TAF3B2, TAF3C)

Function: - general activator of RNA polymerase which utilizes different TFIIIB complexes at structurally distinct promoters. - isoform 1 is involved in the transcription of tRNA, adenovirus VA1, 7SL and 5S RNA - isoform 2 is required for transcription of the U6 promoter - interacts with BDP1 - phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR Structure: - belongs to the TFIIB family - contains 1 TFIIB-type zinc finger
