High-Resolution Phenotypic Landscape of the RNA Polymerase II Trigger Loop. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2016
The active sites of multisubunit RNA polymerases have a "trigger loop" (TL) that multitasks in substrate selection, catalysis, and translocation.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Modulation of RNA primer formation by Mn(II)-substituted T7 DNA primase

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Lagging strand DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase requires RNA primers produced by DNA primase. The N-terminal primase domain of the gene 4 protein of phage T7 comprises a zinc-binding domain that recognizes a specific DNA sequence and an RNA polymerase ...

Promoter clearance by RNA polymerase II [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 2013
Many changes must occur to the RNA polymerase II (pol II) transcription complex as it makes the transition from initiation into transcript elongation. During this intermediate phase of transcription, contact with initiation factors is lost and stable association with the nascent transcript is established.

N4 RNA Polymerase II, a Heterodimeric RNA Polymerase with Homology to the Single-Subunit Family of RNA Polymerases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

The RNA Polymerase II Factor RPAP1 Is Critical for Mediator-Driven Transcription and Cell Identity

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: The RNA polymerase II-associated protein 1 (RPAP1) is conserved across metazoa and required for stem cell differentiation in plants; however, very little is known about its mechanism of action or its role in mammalian cells. Here, we report that

Association of the Influenza A Virus RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerase with Cellular RNA Polymerase II [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2005
ABSTRACT Transcription by the influenza virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is dependent on cellular RNA processing activities that are known to be associated with cellular RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription, namely, capping and splicing.

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Role of RNA Polymerase II Promoter-Proximal Pausing in Viral Transcription

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The promoter-proximal pause induced by the binding of the DRB sensitivity-inducing factor (DSIF) and the negative elongation factor (NELF) to RNAP II is a key step in the regulation of metazoan gene expression.
