Question | Answer |
TBIIB | bind TBP, recruit Pol II and TFIIF |
σ | recognize promoter sequence |
α | recognize promoter sequence (UP element) |
β | catalytic domain |
β' | DNA binding domain |
σ factors | used for the rapid scanning of DNA for promoters |
Sigma factor release occurs | after transcription initiation |
In bacteria, the promoter region is _ bp 5' to splice site | 40 |
Open complex | enzyme melts DNA at -10 region |
Open complex formation | Conformational change in sigma guides the template strand to the active site tunnel |
DOes bacteria transcription require a primer in bacteria? | No |
What bacterial transcription begins with | coupling of 2 NTPs |
Promoter escape | transition between initiation and elongation |
Stages of bacterial initiation with aborted transcripts | open complex formation and promoter escape |
Passive processes of DNA elongation | unwinding and re-annealing |
Short region at the active site of elongation | DNA:RNA hybrid |
Rho-independent terminations structure | dyad symmetry, string of >6A's in DNA |
Rho-independent termination | RNA secondary structure (G-C hairpin loop) followed by run of Us. Mechanical stresses causes rU-dA bonds to break and pull ply-U out of active site. DNA: RNA contact is reduced and transcription terminated |
Incorporation of these decrease termination | I or 5 BrU |
Dyad symmetr yin rho depednent terminators | caues RNA polymerase to pause, also acts as barrier to nucleses |
Rho is this kind of enzyme | helicase |
Rho can unwind these double helices | RNA:DNA, RNA:RNA |
How Rho moves | Hydrolyze NTP to propel itself along RNA 5 to 3 until it catches RNAP |
Rho protein has how many identical subunits | 6 |
Rho is an ATP-_helicase | dependent |
RNAPI | in nuclei, synthesizes precursors to most rRNA. Species-specific promoter recognition |
RNAP II | In nucleoplasm, sytnhesize mRNA precursors. Depends on transcription factors |
TATA (-25) | helps determine start site |
CCAAT (-70--90) | Increases rate of transcription initiation |
GGGCGG | housekeeping genes, increase rate of initiation |
ENhancers | work at distance to increase RNAP II |
RNAP III | nucleoplasm, synthesize precursors of 5S rRNAs, tRNAs, other small nuclear and cystolic RNAs |
Organelle polymerase | chloroplast and mitochondrial, similar to RNA polymerases |
SWI,SNF,NURF proteins | Remodel chromatin by mvoing nucleosomes and control transcriptional activity |
Intercalating agents- | planar aromatic rings that fit in between base pairs (usually GC. They block both DNA and RNA synthesis. Daunomycin, Adriamycin, Actinomycin D, EtBr, Proflavin |
Amatoxins | poison in mushroom |
α-amanitin | inhibits Pol II and III |
Rifamycin | only inhibit prokaryotic polymerases. They bind pol and block elongation from second to third nuc. Does not block initiation or later elongation if added later. This indicates that there is a conformational difference here. |
Cordycepin- 3’deoxyadenosine | incorporated into growing chain and causes termination. Indicated that elongation is 5’ to 3’. |
repressors | block RNAP initiation |
Activators | turn on expression |
Attenuators | couple transcription and translation |
