BRF2, Official Symbol BRF2provided by HGNC Official Full Name BRF2 RNA polymerase III transcription initiation factor subunitprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:17298 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000104221 MIM:607013; AllianceGenome:HGNC:17298 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as BRFU; TFIIIB50 Summary This gene encodes one of the multiple subunits of the RNA polymerase III transcription factor complex required for transcription of genes with promoter elements upstream of the initiation site. The product of this gene, a TFIIB-like factor, is directly recruited to the TATA-box of polymerase III small nuclear RNA gene promoters through its interaction with the TATA-binding protein.
