Multiple active centers of multi-subunit RNA polymerases
The active center of multi-subunit RNA polymerase consists of two modules, the Mg(2+) module, holding the catalytic Mg(2+) ion, and a module made of a flexible domain, the Trigger Loop. Uniquely, the TL module can be substituted by alternative modules, thus changing the catalytic properties of the active center.
متن کاملNTP-driven translocation and regulation of downstream template opening by multi-subunit RNA polymerases.
Multi-subunit RNA polymerases bind nucleotide triphosphate (NTP) substrates in the pretranslocated state and carry the dNMP-NTP base pair into the active site for phosphoryl transfer. NTP-driven translocation requires that NTP substrates enter the main-enzyme channel before loading into the active site. Based on this model, a new view of fidelity and efficiency of RNA synthesis is proposed. The...
متن کاملSimilar subunit architecture of archaeal and eukaryal RNA polymerases.
Protein interactions among RNA polymerase small subunits from the archaeon Methanococcus jannaschii were investigated using affinity pulldown assays in pairwise and higher-order combinations. In the most extensive study of archaeal RNA polymerase subunit interactions to date, including 37 pairs of proteins, 10 ternary combinations, and three quaternary combinations, we found evidence for pairwi...
متن کاملSpecific function of a plastid sigma factor for ndhF gene transcription
The complexity of the plastid transcriptional apparatus (two or three different RNA polymerases and numerous regulatory proteins) makes it very difficult to attribute specific function(s) to its individual components. We have characterized an Arabidopsis T-DNA insertion line disrupting the nuclear gene coding for one of the six plastid sigma factors (SIG4) that regulate the activity of the plas...
متن کاملCharacterization of the plastid-specific germination and seedling establishment transcriptional programme.
Upon imbibition, dry seeds rapidly gain metabolic activity and the switching on of a germination-specific transcriptional programme in the nucleus goes ahead, with the induction of many nucleus-encoded transcripts coding for plastid-localized proteins. Dedifferentiated plastids present in dry seeds differentiate into chloroplasts in cotyledons and into amyloplasts in the root and in the hypocot...
