| Function | Component of the general transcription and DNA repair factor IIH (TFIIH), which is essential for both basal and activated transcription, as well as for nucleotide excision repair (NER) of DNA. TFB5 is required for stable recruitment of TFIIH to a promoter, but not for stability of TFIIH subunits (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
