Function

CDC73_YEAST The PAF1 complex is a multifunctional complex. Involved in transcription initiation via genetic interactions with TATA-binding proteins. Involved in elongation. It regulates 3'-end formation of snR47 by modulating the recruitment or stable association of NRD1 and NAB3 with RNA polymerase II. Also has a role in transcription-coupled histone modification. Required for activation of RAD6 ubiquitin conjugate and the BRE1 ubiquitin ligase which ubiquitinate 'Lys-126' histone H2B. Activates the SET1 histone methyltransferase complex for methylation of 'Lys-4' of histone H3 and for methylation of 'Lys-73' of histone H3 by DOT1 and 'Lys-36' of histone H3 by SET2.[1] [2] [3]
