Molecular Structures of Transcribing RNA Polymerase I

RNA polymerase I (Pol I) is a 14-subunit enzyme that solely synthesizes pre-ribosomal RNA. Recently, the crystal structure of apo Pol I gave unprecedented insight into its molecular architecture. Here, we present three cryo-EM structures of elongating Pol I, two at 4.0 Å and one at 4.6 Å resolution, and a Pol I open complex at 3.8 Å resolution. Two modules in Pol I mediate the narrowing of the ...

RNA Polymerase I: A Multifunctional Molecular Machine

In this issue, Kuhn et al. (2007) report the complete structure of the 14-subunit yeast RNA polymerase (Pol) I enzyme at 12 A resolution using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Their study reveals that three subunits of Pol I perform functions in transcription elongation that are outsourced to the transcription factors TFIIF and TFIIS in the analogous Pol II transcription system.

Transcribing RNA polymerase III observed by electron cryomicroscopy

Electron cryomicroscopy reconstructions of elongating RNA polymerase (Pol) III at 3.9 Å resolution and of unbound Pol III (apo Pol III) in two distinct conformations at 4.6 Å and 4.7 Å resolution allow the construction of complete atomic models of Pol III and provide new functional insights into the adaption of Pol III to fulfill its specific transcription tasks.

CPD damage recognition by transcribing RNA polymerase II.

Cells use transcription-coupled repair (TCR) to efficiently eliminate DNA lesions such as ultraviolet light-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs). Here we present the structure-based mechanism for the first step in eukaryotic TCR, CPD-induced stalling of RNA polymerase (Pol) II. A CPD in the transcribed strand slowly passes a translocation barrier and enters the polymerase active site. T...

Mapping RNA exit channel on transcribing RNA polymerase II by FRET analysis.

A simple genetic tag-based labeling method that permits specific attachment of a fluorescence probe near the C terminus of virtually any subunit of a protein complex is implemented. Its immediate application to yeast RNA polymerase II (pol II) enables us to test various hypotheses of RNA exit channel by using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) analysis. The donor dye is labeled on a ...
