Enhancement of RNA Interference Effect in P19 EC Cells by an RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase
Background: RNA interference (RNAi) is a phenomenon uses double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) to specifically inhibit gene expression. The non-specific silencing caused by interferon response to dsRNA in mammalian cells limits the potential of utilizing RNAi to study gene function. Duplexes of 21-nucleotide short interfering dsRNA (siRNA) inhibit gene expression by RNAi. In some organisms, siRNA can als...
متن کاملControl of Transcriptional Elongation by RNA Polymerase II: A Retrospective
The origins of our current understanding of control of transcription elongation lie in pioneering experiments that mapped RNA polymerase II on viral and cellular genes. These studies first uncovered the surprising excess of polymerase molecules that we now know to be situated at the at the 5' ends of most genes in multicellular organisms. The pileup of pol II near transcription start sites refl...
متن کاملRegulation of RNA Polymerase II Elongation by c-Myc
The genome-wide mapping presented in this issue by Rahl et al. (2010) demonstrates how the transcription factor c-Myc interfaces with the machinery that controls RNA polymerase II elongation. These findings account for the ability of c-Myc to activate the expression of a large number of genes that promote rapid proliferation.
متن کاملAn 8 nt RNA triggers a rate-limiting shift of RNA polymerase II complexes into elongation.
To better understand the critical conversions that RNA polymerase II complexes undergo during promoter escape, we determined in vitro the precise positions of the rate-limiting step and the last step requiring negative superhelicity or TFIIE and TFIIH. We found that both steps occur after synthesis of an 8 nt RNA during the stage encompassing translocation of the polymerase active site to the n...
متن کاملTranscription elongation past O6-methylguanine by human RNA polymerase II and bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase
O(6)-Methylguanine (O(6)-meG) is a major mutagenic, carcinogenic and cytotoxic DNA adduct produced by various endogenous and exogenous methylating agents. We report the results of transcription past a site-specifically modified O(6)-meG DNA template by bacteriophage T7 RNA polymerase and human RNA polymerase II. These data show that O(6)-meG partially blocks T7 RNA polymerase and human RNA poly...
