title: Isolation of Xenopus laevis TFIID subunit p22 reveals two distinct structural regions.
abstract: A cDNA clone encoding a Xenopus laevis (Xl) homologue of the TATA box-binding factor TFIID subunit p22, which shows similarities to histones H2B and H3, was isolated and sequenced. The deduced 164-amino-acid (aa) sequence was compared to those of homologues cloned from human and Drosophila melanogaster (Dm). Analysis showed that the TFIID subunit p22 consists of an approx. 60-aa less-conserved N-terminus and approx. 100-aa highly-conserved C terminus.
