TFIIH is an elongation factor of RNA polymerase I
TFIIH is a multisubunit factor essential for transcription initiation and promoter escape of RNA polymerase II and for the opening of damaged DNA double strands in nucleotide excision repair (NER). In this study, we have analyzed at which step of the transcription cycle TFIIH is essential for transcription by RNA polymerase I. We demonstrate that TFIIH associates with the rDNA promoter and gene...
متن کاملYeast transcription elongation factor Spt5 associates with RNA polymerase I and RNA polymerase II directly.
Spt5 is a transcription factor conserved in all three domains of life. Spt5 homologues from bacteria and archaea bind the largest subunit of their respective RNA polymerases. Here we demonstrate that Spt5 directly associates with RNA polymerase (Pol) I and RNA Pol II in yeast through its central region containing conserved NusG N-terminal homology and KOW domains. Deletion analysis of SPT5 supp...
متن کاملRNA polymerase II elongation factors Spt4p and Spt5p play roles in transcription elongation by RNA polymerase I and rRNA processing.
Previous investigations into the mechanisms that control RNA Polymerase (Pol) I transcription have primarily focused on the process of transcription initiation, thus little is known regarding postinitiation steps in the transcription cycle. Spt4p and Spt5p are conserved throughout eukaryotes, and they affect elongation by Pol II. We have found that these two proteins copurify with Pol I and ass...
متن کاملDirect Characterization of Transcription Elongation by RNA Polymerase I
RNA polymerase I (Pol I) transcribes ribosomal DNA and is responsible for more than 60% of transcription in a growing cell. Despite this fundamental role that directly impacts cell growth and proliferation, the kinetics of transcription by Pol I are poorly understood. This study provides direct characterization of S. Cerevisiae Pol I transcription elongation using tethered particle microscopy (...
متن کاملRNA polymerase and transcription elongation factor Spt4/5 complex structure.
Spt4/5 in archaea and eukaryote and its bacterial homolog NusG is the only elongation factor conserved in all three domains of life and plays many key roles in cotranscriptional regulation and in recruiting other factors to the elongating RNA polymerase. Here, we present the crystal structure of Spt4/5 as well as the structure of RNA polymerase-Spt4/5 complex using cryoelectron microscopy recon...
