Transcription factor E is a part of transcription elongation complexes.
A homologue of the N-terminal domain of the alpha subunit of the general eukaryotic transcription factor TFE is encoded in the genomes of all sequenced archaea, but the position of archaeal TFE in transcription complexes has not yet been defined. We show here that TFE binds nonspecifically to single-stranded DNA, and photochemical cross-linking revealed TFE binding to a preformed open transcrip...

متن کاملElongation factor ELL (Eleven-Nineteen Lysine-rich Leukemia) acts as a transcription factor for direct thrombospondin-1 regulation.
The eleven-nineteen lysine-rich leukemia (ELL) gene undergoes translocation and fuses in-frame to the multiple lineage leukemia gene in a substantial proportion of patients suffering from acute forms of leukemia. Studies show that ELL indirectly modulates transcription by serving as a regulator for transcriptional elongation as well as for p53, U19/Eaf2, and steroid receptor activities. Our in ...
متن کاملRNA polymerase and transcription elongation factor Spt4/5 complex structure.
Spt4/5 in archaea and eukaryote and its bacterial homolog NusG is the only elongation factor conserved in all three domains of life and plays many key roles in cotranscriptional regulation and in recruiting other factors to the elongating RNA polymerase. Here, we present the crystal structure of Spt4/5 as well as the structure of RNA polymerase-Spt4/5 complex using cryoelectron microscopy recon...
متن کاملRegulation of the transcriptional activity of poised RNA polymerase II by the elongation factor ELL.
Many developmentally regulated genes contain a poised RNA polymerase II (Pol II) at their promoters under conditions where full-length transcripts are undetectable. It has been proposed that the transcriptional activity of such promoters is regulated at the elongation stage of Pol II transcription. In Drosophila, the heat-shock loci expressing the Hsp70 genes have been used as a model for the r...
