Mammalian RNA polymerase II transcription factor IIE (TFIIE) was purified to apparent homogeneity. The activity copurified with polypeptides of 34 and 56 kDa. The 56-kDa subunit was sufficient for low levels of transcription activity in a transcription system reconstituted in vitro with highly purified general transcription factors and RNA polymerase II. The 34-kDa polypeptide was found to be stimulatory. The native molecular mass of TFIIE, as determined by gel filtration was estimated to be approximately 200 kDa, suggesting that TFIIE exists in solution as a tetramer composed of two 56-kDa and two 34-kDa polypeptides. Consistent with previous studies demonstrating an interaction of TFIIE with RNA polymerase II, we found that the entry of TFIIE into the transcription cycle was subsequent to the entry of RNA polymerase II.
