Abstract:
Eukaryotic transcription factor IIIA (TF IIIA) is know to activate specifically transcription of 5S rRNA gene. It also interacts with mature 5S rRNA. The best known TF IIIA has been purified from Xenopus laevis. Up to know this protein has not been isolated from plants. In this paper we show for the first time purification and properties of TF IIIA like protein from tulip (Tulipa whittalli). It shows 5S rRNA and 5S rRNA gene binding activity.
