Grounded: transcriptional pausing in naive mESCs.
Growing mouse pluripotent stem cells in defined media with signaling inhibitors establishes a naive ground state different from that of cells grown in serum. Recently in Cell, Marks et al. (2012) reported differences in the transcriptional and epigenomic landscapes of naive and serum-exposed mouse stem cells that improve our understanding of the pluripotent ground state.
متن کاملTranscriptional Pausing Caught in the Act
Single-molecule techniques now permit the tracking of a transcription complex along a DNA template in real time and to 1 bp resolution. As reported in this issue of Cell, Herbert et al. (2006) exploit this approach to study a central component of transcription regulation, the sequence-dependent pausing of RNA polymerase during transcript elongation.
متن کاملStructural Basis of Transcriptional Pausing in Bacteria
Transcriptional pausing by multisubunit RNA polymerases (RNAPs) is a key mechanism for regulating gene expression in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes and is a prerequisite for transcription termination. Pausing and termination states are thought to arise through a common, elemental pause state that is inhibitory for nucleotide addition. We report three crystal structures of Thermus RNAP elementa...
متن کاملStructural Basis for NusA Stabilized Transcriptional Pausing
Transcriptional pausing by RNA polymerases (RNAPs) is a key mechanism to regulate gene expression in all kingdoms of life and is a prerequisite for transcription termination. The essential bacterial transcription factor NusA stimulates both pausing and termination of transcription, thus playing a central role. Here, we report single-particle electron cryo-microscopy reconstructions of NusA boun...
متن کاملThermodynamic and kinetic modeling of transcriptional pausing.
We present a statistical mechanics approach for the prediction of backtracked pauses in bacterial transcription elongation derived from structural models of the transcription elongation complex (EC). Our algorithm is based on the thermodynamic stability of the EC along the DNA template calculated from the sequence-dependent free energy of DNA-DNA, DNA-RNA, and RNA-RNA base pairing associated wi...
