Structural Organization of Bacterial RNA Polymerase Holoenzyme and the RNA Polymerase-Promoter Open Complex
We have used systematic fluorescence resonance energy transfer and distance-constrained docking to define the three-dimensional structures of bacterial RNA polymerase holoenzyme and the bacterial RNA polymerase-promoter open complex in solution. The structures provide a framework for understanding sigma(70)-(RNA polymerase core), sigma(70)-DNA, and sigma(70)-RNA interactions. The positions of s...
متن کاملStructure of a bacterial RNA polymerase holoenzyme open promoter complex
Initiation of transcription is a primary means for controlling gene expression. In bacteria, the RNA polymerase (RNAP) holoenzyme binds and unwinds promoter DNA, forming the transcription bubble of the open promoter complex (RPo). We have determined crystal structures, refined to 4.14 Å-resolution, of RPo containing Thermus aquaticus RNAP holoenzyme and promoter DNA that includes the full trans...
متن کاملSingle-strand promoter traps for bacterial RNA polymerase.
Besides canonical double-strand DNA promoters, multisubunit RNAPs (RNA polymerases) recognize a number of specific single-strand DNA and RNA templates, resulting in synthesis of various types of RNA transcripts. The general recognition principles and the mechanisms of transcription initiation on these templates are not fully understood. To investigate further the molecular mechanisms underlying...
متن کاملElectron microscope studies of transient complexes formed between Escherichia coli RNA polymerase holoenzyme and T7 DNA.
Electron microscopy was used to study the formation of random complexes between Escherichia coli RNA polymerase (nucleosidetriphosphate:RNA nucleotidyltransferase, EC 2.7.7.6) and a promoterless fragment (Mbo I-C) of bacteriophage T7 DNA, and to determine the location of the polymerase molecules bound at 3 degrees to the promoter-containing (Hinf)1100 fragment of the same DNA. The value of the ...
متن کاملA Thermus phage protein inhibits host RNA polymerase by preventing template DNA strand loading during open promoter complex formation
RNA polymerase (RNAP) is a major target of gene regulation. Thermus thermophilus bacteriophage P23-45 encodes two RNAP binding proteins, gp39 and gp76, which shut off host gene transcription while allowing orderly transcription of phage genes. We previously reported the structure of the T. thermophilus RNAP•σA holoenzyme complexed with gp39. Here, we solved the structure of the RNAP•σA holoenzy...
