Transcription factor II E (TFIIE) is one of several general transcription factors that make up the RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex.[1] It is a tetramer of two alpha and two beta chains and interacts with TAF6/TAFII80, ATF7IP, and varicella-zoster virus IE63 protein.[2]

TFIIE recruits

promoter: it contains a zinc ribbon motif that can bind single stranded DNA.[7]
