Structural Biology of Bacterial RNA Polymerase
Since its discovery and characterization in the early 1960s (Hurwitz, J. The discovery of RNA polymerase. J. Biol. Chem. 2005, 280, 42477-42485), an enormous amount of biochemical, biophysical and genetic data has been collected on bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP). In the late 1990s, structural information pertaining to bacterial RNAP has emerged that provided unprecedented insights into the fun...
متن کاملStructural basis of rifampin inactivation by rifampin phosphotransferase.
Rifampin (RIF) is a first-line drug used for the treatment of tuberculosis and other bacterial infections. Various RIF resistance mechanisms have been reported, and recently an RIF-inactivation enzyme, RIF phosphotransferase (RPH), was reported to phosphorylate RIF at its C21 hydroxyl at the cost of ATP. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remained unknown. Here, we solve the structures...
متن کاملStructural basis for the bacterial transcription-repair coupling factor/RNA polymerase interaction
The transcription-repair coupling factor (TRCF, the product of the mfd gene) is a widely conserved bacterial protein that mediates transcription-coupled DNA repair. TRCF uses its ATP-dependent DNA translocase activity to remove transcription complexes stalled at sites of DNA damage, and stimulates repair by recruiting components of the nucleotide excision repair pathway to the site. A protein/p...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Promoter !10 Element Recognition by the Bacterial RNA Polymerase s Subunit
The key step in bacterial promoter opening is recognition of the!10 promoter element (T!12A!11T!10A!9 A!8T!7 consensus sequence) by the RNA polymerase s subunit. We determined crystal structures of s domain 2 bound to single-stranded DNA bearing !10 element sequences. Extensive interactions occur between the protein and the DNA backbone of every!10 element nucleotide. Base-specific interactions...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Promoter −10 Element Recognition by the Bacterial RNA Polymerase σ Subunit
The key step in bacterial promoter opening is recognition of the -10 promoter element (T(-12)A(-11)T(-10)A(-9)A(-8)T(-7) consensus sequence) by the RNA polymerase σ subunit. We determined crystal structures of σ domain 2 bound to single-stranded DNA bearing-10 element sequences. Extensive interactions occur between the protein and the DNA backbone of every -10 element nucleotide. Base-specific ...
