RNA polymerase III subunit architecture and implications for open promoter complex formation.
Transcription initiation by eukaryotic RNA polymerase (Pol) III relies on the TFIIE-related subcomplex C82/34/31. Here we combine cross-linking and hydroxyl radical probing to position the C82/34/31 subcomplex around the Pol III active center cleft. The extended winged helix (WH) domains 1 and 4 of C82 localize to the polymerase domains clamp head and clamp core, respectively, and the two WH do...
متن کاملRNA polymerase II phosphorylation: uncoupling from GAL4-VP16 directed open complex formation and transcription in a reconstituted system.
An activated transcription system was constructed using substantially purified liver factors, Hela TFIID and GAL4-VP16. The system was used to study the relationship between RNA polymerase II large subunit phosphorylation and other ATP-dependent processes occurring during activated transcription. When C-terminal domain (CTD) kinase activity was inhibited, activator dependent open promoter compl...
متن کاملStructural 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 کاملFormation of the open complex by bacterial RNA polymerase--a quantitative model.
Over the last two decades, a large amount of data on initiation of transcription by bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) has been obtained. However, a question of how the open complex is formed still remains open, and several qualitative hypotheses for opening of DNA by RNAP have been proposed. To provide a theoretical framework needed to analyze the assembled experimental data, we here develop the ...
متن کاملDynamic architecture of a minimal RNA polymerase II open promoter complex.
The open promoter complex (OC) is a central intermediate during transcription initiation that contains a DNA bubble. Here, we employ single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer experiments and Nano-Positioning System analysis to determine the three-dimensional architecture of a minimal OC consisting of promoter DNA, including a TATA box and an 11-nucleotide mismatched region around the tr...
