Cotranscriptional kinetic folding of RNA secondary structures including pseudoknots [PDF]
Journal of Computational Biology, 2021, 2020 Computational prediction of RNA structures is an important problem in computational structural biology. Studies of RNA structure formation often assume that the process starts from a fully synthesized sequence. Experimental evidence, however, has shown that RNA folds concurrently with its elongation.

Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2019 In the classical chemostat, the output of the system has no effect on its input. This contrasts with many ecological systems, where the output at the end of a growing season affects nutrient inputs for subsequent seasons.

Stochastic resetting in backtrack recovery by RNA polymerases [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 93, 062411 (2016), 2016 Transcription is a key process in gene expression, in which RNA polymerases produce a complementary RNA copy from a DNA template. RNA polymerization is frequently interrupted by backtracking, a process in which polymerases perform a random walk along the DNA template.

RNA Polymerase III, Ageing and Longevity
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Transcription in eukaryotic cells is performed by three RNA polymerases. RNA polymerase I synthesises most rRNAs, whilst RNA polymerase II transcribes all mRNAs and many non-coding RNAs. The largest of the three polymerases is RNA polymerase III (Pol III)

Regulation of Eukaryotic RNAPs Activities by Phosphorylation
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Evolutionarily conserved kinases and phosphatases regulate RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcript synthesis by modifying the phosphorylation status of the carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of Rpb1, the largest subunit of RNAPII.

Mechanical Properties of Transcription [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 268101 (2017), 2016 Recently the physical characterization of a number of biological processes has proven indispensable for a full understanding of natural phenomena. One such example is the mechanical properties of transcription, which have been shown to have significant effects in gene expression.

RNA Polymerase-Promoter Interactions: the Comings and Goings of RNA Polymerase [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1998 Initiation of transcription is a complicated process involving several different phases: promoter location by RNA polymerase, formation of a competent initiation complex, synthesis of the initial phosphodiester bonds, and movement of RNA polymerase from the promoter as it enters the elongation ...

N4 RNA Polymerase II, a Heterodimeric RNA Polymerase with Homology to the Single-Subunit Family of RNA Polymerases [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2002 ABSTRACTBacteriophage N4 middle genes are transcribed by a phage-coded, heterodimeric, rifampin-resistant RNA polymerase, N4 RNA polymerase II (N4 RNAPII). Sequencing and transcriptional analysis revealed that the genes encoding the two subunits comprising N4 RNAPII are translated from a common transcript initiating at the N4 early promoter Pe3.

Biogenesis of RNA Polymerases in Yeast [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Eukaryotic RNA polymerases (RNA pols) transcriptional processes have been extensively investigated, and the structural analysis of eukaryotic RNA pols has been explored. However, the global assembly and biogenesis of these heteromultimeric complexes have been narrowly studied.

Origin and Evolution of RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase
Frontiers in Genetics, 2017 RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRp) are very ancient enzymes and are essential for all viruses with RNA genomes. We reconstruct the origin and evolution of this polymerase since the initial stages of the origin of life. The origin of the RdRp was traced
