General transcription factor 3C polypeptide 4 (GTF3C4)

Essential for RNA polymerase III to make a number of small nuclear and cytoplasmic RNAs, such as 5S RNA, tRNA, and adenovirus-associated (VA) RNA of both viral and cellular origin. Has histone acetyltransferase activity (HAT) with unique specificity for free and nucleosomal H3.

May cooperate with GTF3C5 in facilitating the recruitment of TFIIIB and RNA polymerase through direct interactions with BRF1, POLR3C and POLR3F. May be localized near the A box.
