متن کاملThe RNA polymerase II transcription cycle: cycling through chromatin.
The cycle of events that characterizes RNA polymerase II transcription has been the focus of intense study over the past two decades. Our knowledge of the molecular processes leading to transcriptional initiation is greatly improved, and the focus of many recent studies has shifted towards the less well-characterized events taking place after assembly of the pre-initiation complex, such as prom...
متن کاملHuman Elongator facilitates RNA polymerase II transcription through chromatin.
A human Elongator complex was purified from HeLa cells and found to be composed of three polypeptides. Human Elongator contains histone acetyltransferase activity with specificity to histone H3 and, to a much lesser extent, to histone H4. Although many reports have suggested a role for the yeast Elongator in transcription elongation through chromatin templates, no direct evidence supporting thi...
متن کاملChaperoning RNA Polymerase II through repressive chromatin.
The histone chaperone Spt6 is known to facilitate transcriptional elongation while preventing spurious initiation of transcription within the coding region of genes. A recent publication in The EMBO Journal (Wang et al, 2013) identifies an additional mechanism by which Spt6 promotes gene expression by demonstrating that it tethers the histone demethylase UTX/KDM6A to the elongating RNA Polymera...
متن کاملRegulation of RNA polymerase II transcription.
Transcription initiation plays a central role in the regulation of gene expression. Exciting developments in the last year have furthered our understanding of the interactions between general transcription factors and how these factors respond to modulators of transcription.
