Enhancer of RNA polymerase III gene transcription.
A protein responsible for enhanced transcription by RNA polymerase III was identified in extracts from Xenopus oocytes. This protein, called EP3, interacts with a specific DNA sequence adjacent to the 3'-end of a Xenopus somatic 5S RNA gene and forms a distinct band shift complex with a unique DNase I footprint. Enhanced transcription was observed from both 5S RNA and tRNA reporter genes when E...
متن کاملA minimal RNA polymerase III transcription system.
Transcription factor (TF) IIIB recruits RNA polymerase (pol) III for specific initiation of transcription. All three subunits of TFIIIB, TBP, Brf (the TFIIB-related subunit) and B", are required for transcription of supercoiled and linear duplex DNA, but we show here that B" is non-essential on a promoter that has been partly pre-opened by unpairing a short segment of the transcription bubble. ...
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...
متن کاملExtragenic Accumulation of RNA Polymerase II Enhances Transcription by RNA Polymerase III
Recent genomic data indicate that RNA polymerase II (Pol II) function extends beyond conventional transcription of primarily protein-coding genes. Among the five snRNAs required for pre-mRNA splicing, only the U6 snRNA is synthesized by RNA polymerase III (Pol III). Here we address the question of how Pol II coordinates the expression of spliceosome components, including U6. We used chromatin i...
متن کاملTranscription by RNA polymerase III: insights into mechanism and regulation
The highly abundant, small stable RNAs that are synthesized by RNA polymerase III (RNAPIII) have key functional roles, particularly in the protein synthesis apparatus. Their expression is metabolically demanding, and is therefore coupled to changing demands for protein synthesis during cell growth and division. Here, we review the regulatory mechanisms that control the levels of RNAPIII transcr...
