The Mitochondrial RNA Landscape of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Mitochondria are essential organelles that harbor a reduced genome, and expression of that genome requires regulated metabolism of its transcriptome by nuclear-encoded proteins. Despite extensive investigation, a comprehensive map of the yeast mitochondrial transcriptome has not been developed and all of the RNA-metabolizing proteins have not been identified, both of which are prerequisites to ...
متن کاملPartial purification of mitochondrial RNA polymerase from rat liver.
Mitochondrial RNA polymerase activity from rat liver has previously been demonstrated in intact organelles. This activity has now been solubilized, partially purified, and shown to be a true polymerase, free of nuclease. The enzyme is derived from mitochondria and is not from contaminating bacteria or nuclear components. The enzyme is distinguished from its nuclear counterparts by its behavior ...
متن کاملSite-directed mutagenesis, purification and assay of Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA polymerase II.
In order to analyze the structure-function of multi-subunit RNA polymerases (RNAPs), it is necessary to make site-directed mutations in key residues. Because Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNAP II is isolated as a 12 subunit enzyme that has not been amenable to in vitro reconstitution, making site-directed mutations in a particular subunit presents technical issues. In this work, we demonstrate a met...
متن کاملPurification of Active TFIID from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The basal transcription factor TFIID is composed of the TATA-binding protein (TBP) and 14 TBP-associated factors (TAFs). Although TBP alone binds to the TATA box of DNA and supports basal transcription, the TAFs have essential functions that remain poorly defined. In order to study its properties, TFIID was purified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae using a newly developed affinity tag. Analysis of...
متن کاملCharacterization of human RNA polymerase III identifies orthologues for Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA polymerase III subunits.
Unlike Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA polymerase III, human RNA polymerase III has not been entirely characterized. Orthologues of the yeast RNA polymerase III subunits C128 and C37 remain unidentified, and for many of the other subunits, the available information is limited to database sequences with various degrees of similarity to the yeast subunits. We have purified an RNA polymerase III comp...
