Co-expression showed that TAF4 may function as a transcription factor (TF) regulates TWA1 expression, which further to mediate tumor invasion and metastasis.

Coexpression of Sp1 and TAFII130 in cultured striatal cells from wild-type and HD transgenic mice reverses the transcriptional inhibition of the dopamine D2 receptor gene caused by mutant huntingtin, as well as protects neurons from huntingtin-induced cellular toxicity.
It has been demonstrated that the inclusions in dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) and Machado-Joseph disease (MJD) were immunopositive for several transcription factors such as TATA-binding protein (TBP), TBP-associated factor (TAF(II)130), Sp1, cAMP-responsive element-binding protein (CREB) and CREB-binding protein, suggesting that neuronal degeneration in polyglutamine diseases may result from nuclear depletion of transcription factors containing the glutamine-rich domain.
