Many of the mechanisms involving transactivation of transcription factors involve protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation (290). Phosphorylation by protein kinases occurs at serine, threonine, or tyrosine amino acid residues. Several classes of protein kinases exist within the cell; however, the best studied are the protein kinase A (PKA) and C (PKC) pathways. PKA is activated indirectly by the catalytic subunit of adenylate cyclase. Signals that increase intracellular cAMP will activate PKA (291,292).
DNA-binding proteins have three functional domains: (1) a surface to bind DNA, (2) a surface to interact with other proteins containing similar oligomerization (dimerization) motifs, and (3) a surface to interact with the signal transduction pathways or the preinitiation complex. Examples of motifs associated with these domains are listed.

TAFII250) have numerous enzymatic features including ubiquitin-conjugating activity (186). The conclusion from these studies is that TAFs are involved in promoter selection through yet to be defined mechanisms (185). TBP is not specific to Pol II promoters, but also forms PICs at the start site of Pol I and III promoters, as well as Inr promoters that do not contain TATA elements (167,187,188) (see Fig. 1-6B). For example, in Pol I promoters, TBP does not bind DNA directly in a sequence-specific manner, but instead forms protein–protein interactions with the selectivity factor complex (SL1) and the upstream binding factor (UBF) (189).
