Sterol regulatory element binding protein 1a regulates hepatic fatty acid partitioning by activating acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase 2.

abstract：:The TATA-binding protein (TBP), TFIIA, and TFIIB interact with promoter DNA to form a complex required for transcriptional initiation, and many transcriptional regulators function by either stimulating or inhibiting formation of this complex.
