The versatility of paramyxovirus RNA polymerase stuttering.
Paramyxoviruses cotranscriptionally edit their P gene mRNAs by expanding the number of Gs of a conserved AnGn run. Different viruses insert different distributions of guanylates, e.g., Sendai virus inserts a single G, whereas parainfluenza virus type 3 inserts one to six Gs. The sequences conserved at the editing site, as well as the experimental evidence, suggest that the insertions occur by a...
متن کاملMolecular 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 ...
متن کاملTranscribing 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.
متن کاملCPD 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...
متن کاملTemplate requirement of maize RNA polymerase.
Maize RNA polymerase utilizes heated deoxyribonucleic acid more effectively than native deoxyribonucleic acid as a template for ribonucleic acid synthesis. A ribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid hybrid accumulates in the presence of heated deoxyribonucleic acid. The amount of product formed with either native or heat-denatured deoxyribonucleic acid does not exceed the amount of deoxyribonucle...
