UniProtKB description: TFIIIC mediates tRNA and 5S RNA gene activation by binding to intragenic promoter elements. Upstream of the transcription start site, TFIIIC assembles the initiation complex TFIIIB-TFIIIC-tDNA, which is sufficient for RNA polymerase III recruitment and function. Part of the tauB domain of TFIIIC that binds boxB DNA promoter sites of tRNA and similar genes. Plays a role in TFIIB assembly through its interaction with SPT15/TBP. Essential for cell viability.
