Relevance to Autism
A SNP within the TAF1C gene showed association (P=2.910E-07) in the primary analyses of the combined Autism Genome Project genome-wide association sample (diagnosis: spectrum; ancestry: all) in Anney et al., 2012.
Molecular Function
Initiation of transcription by RNA polymerase I requires the formation of a complex composed of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and three TBP-associated factors (TAFs) specific for RNA polymerase I. This complex, known as SL1, binds to the core promoter of ribosomal RNA genes to position the polymerase properly and acts as a channel for regulatory signals. This gene encodes the largest SL1-specific TAF.
