Localization of Escherichia coli rpoC mutations that affect RNA polymerase assembly and activity at high temperature.
We localized five rpoC (beta') mutations affecting Escherichia coli RNA polymerase assembly. The Ts4, XH56, and R120 mutations changed beta' residues conserved throughout eubacteria; the JE10092 mutation occurred in the hypervariable region; rpoC1 (TsX) changed a universally conserved residue and corresponds to yeast rpb1-1. Thus, distinct, predominantly conserved beta' residues participate in ...
متن کاملPoint mutations which drastically affect the polymerization activity of encephalomyocarditis virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase correspond to the active site of Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I.
The inhibitor sensitivity and functional domains of recombinant encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (3Dpol) have been extensively analyzed. The inhibitor profiles of EMC virus 3Dpol and Escherichia coli DNA-dependent RNA polymerase are distinct, and experiments with substrate analogs indicate that EMC virus 3Dpol lacks reverse transcriptase activity. Twenty amino acid ...
متن کاملStructure of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase holoenzyme at last.
Much of the mechanistic foundations of our knowledge of regulation of gene expression at the transcriptional level have been provided by Escherichia coli and its phages. E. coli RNA polymerase (EcoRNAP) is a multisubunit enzyme composed of a catalytically active core (β′βα2ω); subunits that are evolutionarily related to β′, β, α, and ω are present in DNA-dependent RNAPs of all organisms. In bac...
متن کاملEscherichia coli RNA polymerase activity observed using atomic force microscopy.
Fluid tapping-mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to observe Escherichia coli RNA polymerase (RNAP) transcribing two different linear double-stranded (ds) DNA templates. The transcription process was detected by observing the translocation of the DNA template by RNAP on addition of ribonucleoside 5'-triphosphates (NTPs) in sequential AFM images. Stalled ternary complexes of RNAP, dsDNA ...
متن کاملInterconvertible forms of Escherichia coli RNA polymerase.
Escherichia coli RNA polymerase exists in two different forms, one less active than the other under standard assay conditions. Conversion of the active to the inactive form requires ATP-Mg(++). The reverse, inactive to active enzyme conversion, requires Mg(++). Covalently bound adenylic acid residue(s) are contained in the inactive form.
