UBF
Recognizes the ribosomal RNA gene promoter and activates transcription mediated by RNA polymerase I through cooperative interactions with the transcription factor SL1/TIF-IB complex. It binds specifically to the upstream control element. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
