TFIIH is a multicomponent basal transcription factor complex. Nine subunits have been identified within the TFIIH holoenzyme complex. Various enzymatic activities, including DNA repair, helicase, and cyclin-dependent kinase activities, have been reported. The XPB, p62, p52, p44, and p34 subunits are thought to constitute the "core" of the TFIIH transcription machinery. Although the p44 and p34 subunits have no defined enzymatic activity, their zinc finger structures suggest that they may be DNA-binding proteins that might mediate interactions with soluble transcription factors. The cdk-activating kinase (CAK) subcomplex, comprising subunits Cdk7, cyclin H, amd MAT1, phosphorylate several cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks), as well as the carboxy-terminal domain of pol II. Several inherited human disorders such as Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), Cockayne syndrome (CS) and trichothiodystrophy (TTD) are associated with mutations in TFIIH subunits.

Heat treatment of yeast nuclear extracts abolished the capacity to initiate transcription at RNA polymerase II promoters. Activity was restored by the addition of both recombinant yeast TFIID and partially purified factor b, a yeast fraction shown previously to be

Two new factors required for transcription of class II genes have been identified. These factors, TFIIH and TFIIJ, were required together with the previously described general factors (TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, and TFIIF) and RNA polymerase II for transcription of
