New tricks for an old dog: Brf2-dependent RNA Polymerase III transcription in oxidative stress and cancer.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2018-01-01)
Here, we discuss the role of Brf2, an RNA Polymerase III core transcription factor, as a master switch of the oxidative stress response. We highlight the interplay of Brf2 with the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway, as well as the role ...
Structural basis of RNA polymerase III transcription initiation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-01-17)
RNA polymerase (Pol) III transcribes essential non-coding RNAs, including the entire pool of transfer RNAs, the 5S ribosomal RNA and the U6 spliceosomal RNA, and is often deregulated in cancer cells. The initiation of gene ...
Structural rearrangements of the RNA polymerase III machinery during tRNA transcription initiation.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-04-01)
RNA polymerase III catalyses the synthesis of tRNAs in eukaryotic organisms. Through combined biochemical and structural characterisation, multiple auxiliary factors have been identified alongside RNA Polymerase III as ...
Mechanism of selective recruitment of RNA polymerases II and III to snRNA gene promoters.
(COLD SPRING HARBOR LAB PRESS, PUBLICATIONS DEPT, 2018-05-01)
RNA polymerase II (Pol II) small nuclear RNA (snRNA) promoters and type 3 Pol III promoters have highly similar structures; both contain an interchangeable enhancer and "proximal sequence element" (PSE), which recruits the ...
