Abstract
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Bell et al. identify an isoform of hTAF(II )80 that is induced in response to several proapoptotic stimuli. The findin g that extracellular signals can lead to changes in the subunit composition of TFIID provides an example of how regulated activity of the general tran scription factors may contribute to inducible programs of gene expression.
