The TFB4 subunit of yeast TFIIH is required for both nucleotide excision repair and RNA polymerase II transcription.
The N-degron strategy has been used to generate a yeast strain harboring a temperature-sensitive allele of TFB4 (tfb4(td)), the gene that encodes the 37-kDa subunit of the transcription/repair factor TFIIH. The tfb4(td) strain was sensitive to UV radiation and is defective in nucleotide excision repair in vitro. The mutant strain was also found to be an inositol auxotroph due at least in part t...
متن کاملTranscription-coupled DNA repair in yeast transcription factor IIE (TFIIE) mutants.
We examined the role of yeast transcription initiation factor IIE (TFIIE) in eukaryotic transcription-coupled repair (TCR), the preferential removal of DNA damage from the transcribed strands of genes over non-transcribed sequences. TFIIE can recruit the transcription initiation/repair factor TFIIH to the RNA polymerase II (RNA pol II) initiation complex to facilitate promoter clearance. Follow...
متن کاملRNA polymerase II stalled at a thymine dimer: footprint and effect on excision repair.
Bulky lesions in the template strand block the progression of RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) and are repaired more rapidly than lesions in the non-transcribed strand, which do not block transcription. In order to better understand the basis of this transcription-coupled repair we developed an in vitro system with purified transcription and nucleotide excision repair proteins and a plasmid containi...
متن کاملRad26, the Transcription-Coupled Repair Factor in Yeast, Is Required for Removal of Stalled RNA Polymerase-II following UV Irradiation
Transcription coupled nucleotide excision repair (TCR) is a major pathway responsible for removal of helix distorting DNA lesions from transcriptionally active regions of the genome. Rad26, a key factor of the TCR pathway, is known to play a role during early steps of TCR. Here, we show that Rad26-mediated TCR is not absolutely dependent on active transcription elongation in budding yeast. As p...
متن کاملRepair of rDNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: RAD4-independent strand-specific nucleotide excision repair of RNA polymerase I transcribed genes.
Removal of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers from the individual strands of the rDNA locus in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied. Yeast rDNA, that is transcribed by RNA polymerase I(RNA pol I), is repaired efficiently, slightly strand-specific and independently of RAD26, which has been implicated in transcription-coupled repair of the RNA pol II transcribed RPB2 gene. No repair of rDNA is observed...
