Single-peptide DNA-dependent RNA polymerase homologous to multi-subunit RNA polymerase [PDF]
Although all known RNA polymerases have multiple subunits, unrelated single-subunit polymerases have also been described. Here, the authors describe a single-subunit RNA polymerase from the SPβ prophage ofBacillus subtilis, which shares homology to multi-

Structure of the bacteriophage PhiKZ non-virion RNA polymerase bound to a p119L open promoter analogue [PDF]
Bacteriophage ΦKZ (PhiKZ) was the first identified member of a family of massive bacterial viruses. ΦKZ infects Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which kills tens of thousands every year, and it therefore has potential as a bacteriophage therapy. On infection, ΦKZ

Abstract P-23: Histone N-terminal Tails Reduce Early Nucleosomal Pausing during Transcription [PDF]
Background: Nucleosomes are the barriers to transcript elongation by RNA polymerase 2 (Pol 2) in vitro and in vivo. Formation and overcoming the barrier are important for transcription regulation. N-terminal tails of core histones do not affect the inner

Abstract P-18: Phosphorylation of RNA Polymerase II C-Terminal Domain Affects Transcript Elongation Through Chromatin [PDF]
Background: Transcription is the central point of gene regulation where the efficient maintenance of chromatin structure during the passage of RNA polymerase (Pol II) is critical for cell survival and functioning.

Extragenic accumulation of RNA polymerase II enhances transcription by RNA polymerase III. [PDF]
Recent genomic data indicate that RNA polymerase II (Pol II) function extends beyond conventional transcription of primarily protein-coding genes. Among the five snRNAs required for pre-mRNA splicing, only the U6 snRNA is synthesized by RNA polymerase ...

Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae, like other microbes in nature, respond to the unavailability of nutrients with entrance in quiescent/G0 state. These cells exist in non-dividing, latent form by maintaining the cellular metabolism at a low level but still

DNA polymerase III protein, HolC, helps resolve replication/transcription conflicts
In Escherichia coli, DNA replication is catalyzed by an assembly of proteins, the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme. This complex includes the polymerase and proofreading subunits, the processivity clamp and clamp loader complex.

Molecular motors can exhibit Brownian ratchet or power stroke mechanisms. These mechanistic categories are related to transition state position: An early transition state suggests that chemical energy is stored and then released during the step (stroke) while a late transition state suggests that the release of chemical energy rectifies thermally ...

RNA Polymerases of Maize: Nuclear RNA Polymerases [PDF]
Two DNA-dependent RNA polymerases of nuclear origin have been purified from leaves of Zea mays . The two enzymes can be separated on DEAE-cellulose columns. Enzymes I and II are eluted with 0.08 and 0.20 M (NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 , respectively.
