Although the mechanisms by which the Mediator complex regulates transcription are often complicated by the context-dependent regulation, this transcription cofactor complex plays a pivotal role in numerous biological pathways.
The Mediator complex regulates transcription by bridging the general transcriptional machinery with specific transcription factors.
Due to its massive size and complexity, however, the precise molecular mechanism(s) by which the Mediator complex regulates the gene-specific transcription remain poorly understood but are likely to play important functional roles in both normal physiological and pathophysiological states.

MED12, or mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription, subunit 12 homolog of S. cerevisiae, is one of several subunits in the mammalian mediator complex, which regulates RNA polymerase II during mRNA transcription.
The Mediator complex also regulates the release of hindered PolII, enhances the re-initiation and coordinates RNA capping, splicing and polyadenylation (Borggrefe and Yue 2011).
C. albicans is a commensal and opportunistic pathogen of humans and the TLO gene family encodes a subunit of the Mediator complex that regulates transcription and affects a range of virulence factors.
