Regional Codon Randomization : Defining a TATA - Binding Protein Surface Required for RNA Polymerase Ill Transcription Brendan

چکیده
Screening for disease-associated genetic markers may provide new tools for prevention of occupational diseases (22). So far in CBD, blood and lung lymphocyte testing for Be-specific proliferation have been used to identify individuals with Be allergy and disease (23). However, because lymphocyte tests do not predict disease or risk, genetic testing may have a role, in association with lymphocyte Be-specific proliferation testing, in the identification and follow-up of individuals at risk of beryllium disease.

Different human TFIIIB activities direct RNA polymerase III transcription from TATA-containing and TATA-less promoters.
Transcription initiation at RNA polymerase III promoters requires transcription factor IIIB (TFIIIB), an activity that binds to RNA polymerase III promoters, generally through protein-protein contacts with DNA binding factors, and directly recruits RNA polymerase III. Saccharomyces cerevisiae TFIIIB is a complex of three subunits, TBP, the TFIIB-related factor BRF, and the more loosely associat...
متن کاملThe TATA-binding protein is required for transcription by all three nuclear RNA polymerases in yeast cells.
Using temperature- and proteolytically sensitive derivatives to inactivate the function of the yeast TATA-binding protein (TBP) in vivo, we investigated the requirement of TBP for transcription by the three nuclear RNA polymerases in yeast cells. TBP is required for RNA polymerase II (pol II) transcription from promoters containing conventional TATA elements as well as functionally distinct pro...
متن کاملThe TATA-binding protein is a general transcription factor for RNA polymerase III.
The TATA-binding protein (TBP) is a principal component of the general factor TFIID and is required for specific transcription by RNA polymerase II. We have shown that TBP is also a general factor for RNA polymerase III.
متن کاملA new regulatory domain on the TATA-binding protein.
Recognition of the TATA box by the TATA-binding protein (TBP) is a highly regulated step in RNA polymerase II-dependent transcription. Several proteins have been proposed to regulate TBP activity, yet the TBP domains responsive to all these regulators have not been defined. Here we describe a new class of TBP mutants that increase transcription from core promoters in vivo. The majority of these...
متن کاملTranscription by Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus RNA polymerase in vitro releases archaeal transcription factor B but not TATA-box binding protein from the template DNA.
Transcription initiation in Archaea requires the assembly of a preinitiation complex containing the TATA- box binding protein (TBP), transcription factor B (TFB), and RNA polymerase (RNAP). The results reported establish the fate of Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus TBP and TFB following transcription initiation by M. thermautotrophicus RNAP in vitro. TFB is released after initiation, duri...
