Structure of an RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex.
The structure of a 33-protein, 1.5-MDa RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex (PIC) was determined by cryo-EM and image processing at a resolution of 6-11 Å. Atomic structures of over 50% of the mass were fitted into the electron density map in a manner consistent with protein-protein cross-links previously identified by mass spectrometry. The resulting model of the PIC confirmed the main conc...
متن کاملKDM2B links the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) to recognition of CpG islands
CpG islands (CGIs) are associated with most mammalian gene promoters. A subset of CGIs act as polycomb response elements (PREs) and are recognized by the polycomb silencing systems to regulate expression of genes involved in early development. How CGIs function mechanistically as nucleation sites for polycomb repressive complexes remains unknown. Here we discover that KDM2B (FBXL10) specificall...
متن کاملPolycomb repressive complex 1 controls uterine decidualization
Uterine stromal cell decidualization is an essential part of the reproductive process. Decidual tissue development requires a highly regulated control of the extracellular tissue remodeling; however the mechanism of this regulation remains unknown. Through systematic expression studies, we detected that Cbx4/2, Rybp, and Ring1B [components of polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1)] are predominan...
متن کاملRYBP stimulates PRC1 to shape chromatin-based communication between Polycomb repressive complexes
Polycomb group (PcG) proteins function as chromatin-based transcriptional repressors that are essential for normal gene regulation during development. However, how these systems function to achieve transcriptional regulation remains very poorly understood. Here, we discover that the histone H2AK119 E3 ubiquitin ligase activity of Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) is defined by the compositio...
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...
