“…The transcription/DNA repair factor TFIIH is composed of ten subunits, seven of which (p62, p52, p44, p34, XPD, XPB, and TTDA) form the core complex associated with the three-subunit cyclin-activating kinase complex (CAK) composed of Cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7), Cyclin H, and MAT1. During transcription initiation, CDK7 phosphorylates the C-terminal domain of Pol II (CTD) at serine 5 as well as other transcription factors such as several nuclear receptors involved in the hormonal response (Compe and Egly, 2012).…”
