RNA polymerase and transcription elongation factor Spt4/5 complex structure.
Spt4/5 in archaea and eukaryote and its bacterial homolog NusG is the only elongation factor conserved in all three domains of life and plays many key roles in cotranscriptional regulation and in recruiting other factors to the elongating RNA polymerase. Here, we present the crystal structure of Spt4/5 as well as the structure of RNA polymerase-Spt4/5 complex using cryoelectron microscopy recon...
متن کاملThe structure of bacterial RNA polymerase in complex with the essential transcription elongation factor NusA.
There are three stages of transcribing DNA into RNA. These stages are initiation, elongation and termination, and they are well-understood biochemically. However, despite the plethora of structural information made available on RNA polymerase in the last decade, little is available for RNA polymerase in complex with transcription elongation factors. To understand the mechanisms of transcription...
متن کاملYeast transcription elongation factor Spt5 associates with RNA polymerase I and RNA polymerase II directly.
Spt5 is a transcription factor conserved in all three domains of life. Spt5 homologues from bacteria and archaea bind the largest subunit of their respective RNA polymerases. Here we demonstrate that Spt5 directly associates with RNA polymerase (Pol) I and RNA Pol II in yeast through its central region containing conserved NusG N-terminal homology and KOW domains. Deletion analysis of SPT5 supp...
متن کاملStructure and Function of the Transcription Elongation Factor GreB Bound to Bacterial RNA Polymerase
Bacterial GreA and GreB promote transcription elongation by stimulating an endogenous, endonucleolytic transcript cleavage activity of the RNA polymerase. The structure of Escherichia coli core RNA polymerase bound to GreB was determined by cryo-electron microscopy and image processing of helical crystals to a nominal resolution of 15 A, allowing fitting of high-resolution RNA polymerase and Gr...
متن کاملStructure–function studies of the RNA polymerase II elongation complex
RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is the eukaryotic enzyme that is responsible for transcribing all protein-coding genes into messenger RNA (mRNA). The mRNA-transcription cycle can be divided into three stages: initiation, elongation and termination. During elongation, Pol II moves along a DNA template and synthesizes a complementary RNA chain in a processive manner. X-ray structural analysis has prov...
