An expanding family of archaeal transcriptional activators.
Transcriptional regulation in the archaea involves a mosaic of DNA-binding proteins frequently (although not exclusively) of bacterial type, modulating a eukaryal-type core transcription apparatus. Methanocaldococcus jannaschii (Mja) Ptr2, a homologue of the Lrp/AsnC family of bacterial transcription regulators that are among the most widely disseminated archaeal DNA-binding proteins, has been ...
متن کاملIdentified Hybrid tRNA Structure Genes in Archaeal Genome
Background: In Archaea, previous studies have revealed the presence of multiple intron-containing tRNAs and split tRNAs. The full unexpurgated analysis of archaeal tRNA genes remains a challenging task in the field of bioinformatics, because of the presence of various types of hidden tRNA genes in archaea. Here, we suggested a computational method that searched for widely separ...
متن کاملFactor-dependent archaeal transcription termination.
RNA polymerase activity is regulated by nascent RNA sequences, DNA template sequences, and conserved transcription factors. Transcription factors promoting initiation and elongation have been characterized in each domain, but transcription termination factors have been identified only in bacteria and eukarya. Here we describe euryarchaeal termination activity (Eta), the first archaeal terminati...
متن کاملSTATs: Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription
further duplicated. In recent evolution, the Stat5 gene Signal transducers and activators of transcription further duplicated. Since the Drosophila gene appears (STATs) were first identified as a unique family of DNAto be most related to Stat5, the Stat3–Stat5a/Stat5b site binding proteins approximately four years ago. Since may represent the ancestral gene site. that time, the number of mammal...
متن کاملArchaeal Histones, Nucleosomes, and Transcription Initiation
Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum and Metha-nobacterium formicicum, and five in Methanococcus and Charles J. Daniels Department of Microbiology jannaschii, two of which are plasmid-encoded (Bult et al., 1996; Grayling et al., 1996). In most cases, the primary sequences of the archaeal histones within one species are more similar to each other than to the sequences of histones in other Archae...
