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.
متن کاملAnalyzing RNA polymerase III by electron cryomicroscopy.
Recent electron cryomicroscopy reconstructions have provided new insights into the overall organization of yeast RNA polymerase (Pol) III, responsible for the synthesis of small, non-translated RNAs. The structure of the free Pol III enzyme at 10 Å resolution provides an accurate framework to better understand its overall architecture and the structural organization and functional role of two P...
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 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 کاملMapping 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 ...
