RNA polymerase II-dependent transcription in trypanosomes is associated with a SNAP complex-like transcription factor.
Spliced leader RNA transcription is essential for cell viability in trypanosomes. The SL RNA genes are expressed from the only defined RNA polymerase II-dependent promoter identified to date in the trypanosome genome. The SL RNA gene promoter has been shown by in vitro and in vivo analyses to have a tripartite architecture. The upstream most cis-acting element, called PBP-1E, is located between...
متن کاملA heteromeric transcription factor required for mammalian RNA polymerase II.
A general transcription factor, FC, essential for specific initiation of in vitro transcription by mammalian RNA polymerase II was identified and a procedure developed to purify it to near homogeneity from HeLa cell nuclei. Purified FC is composed of two polypeptides of apparent molecular masses 80 kDa and 30 kDa, on SDS-PAGE, and has a native size of 280 kDa estimated by gel filtration column....
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 کاملThe histone folds in transcription factor TFIID.
The transcription factor TFIID is a multimeric protein complex containing the TATA box-binding polypeptide (TBP) and TBP-associated factors. We have previously reported that the N-terminal regions of dTAFII62 and dTAFII42 have sequence similarities with histones H4 and H3. Here, we demonstrate that the histone-homologous regions of dTAFII62 and dTAFII42 form a heteromeric complex both in vitro ...
متن کاملTranscription factor TFIIIB and transcription by RNA polymerase III.
pol (RNA polymerase) III is charged with the task of transcribing nuclear genes encoding diverse small structural and catalytic RNAs. We present a brief review of the current understanding of several aspects of the pol III transcription apparatus. The focus is on yeast and, more specifically, on Saccharomyces cerevisiae; preponderant attention is given to the TFs (transcription initiation facto...
