Activation of transcription at specific promoters by glycerol.
Glycerol added to a transcription system containing Xgal DNA and Escherichia coli RNA polymerase holoenzyme stimulates total RNA synthesis and replaces the requirement for cyclic adenosine 3’:5’-monophosphate (CAMP) and CAMP receptor (CRP) for promotion of gal RNA synthesis. The stimulatory effect which is proportional to the concentration of glycerol up to 20% (v/v) occurs at the level of prei...
متن کاملTranscription activation at class II CAP-dependent promoters.
Transcription activation at Class II CAP-dependent promoters provides a paradigm for understanding how a single activator molecule can make multiple interactions with the transcription machinery, with each interaction being responsible for a specific mechanistic consequence. At Class II CAP-dependent promoters, the DNA target site for CAP is centred near position -42, overlapping and replacing ...
متن کاملTranscription regulation by tandem-bound FNR at Escherichia coli promoters.
FNR is an Escherichia coli transcription factor that regulates the transcription of many genes in response to anaerobiosis. We have constructed a series of artificial FNR-dependent promoters, based on the melR promoter, in which a consensus FNR binding site was centered at position -41.5 relative to the transcription start site. A second consensus FNR binding site was introduced at different up...
متن کاملTranscription Activation at Class II CAP-Dependent Promoters: Two Interactions between CAP and RNA Polymerase
Class II CAP-dependent promoters, interacting with the RNAP ␣ subunit C-terminal domain (␣CTD) and facilitat-At Class I CAP-dependent promoters, interaction between the activating region and ␣CTD (and concomitant St. Louis, Missouri 63104 recruitment of RNAP to promoter DNA) appears to be the entire basis of transcription activation. Thus, at Class Summary I CAP-dependent promoters, removal of ...
متن کاملDownstream Antisense Transcription Predicts Genomic Features That Define the Specific Chromatin Environment at Mammalian Promoters
Antisense transcription is a prevalent feature at mammalian promoters. Previous studies have primarily focused on antisense transcription initiating upstream of genes. Here, we characterize promoter-proximal antisense transcription downstream of gene transcription starts sites in human breast cancer cells, investigating the genomic context of downstream antisense transcription. We find extensiv...
