Eukaryotic vs prokaryotic transcription Prokaryotes: Eukaryotes: • no membrane-bound nucleus • DNA is located in membranebound nucleus • transcription and translation are coupled • Transcription and translation are separated in space and time a-amanitin RNA Pol II Inhibitor Amanita phalloides (the death cap) Actinomycin D •Antitumor antibiotic from Streptomyces genus • Aromatic ring intercalates between GC base pairs, while the peptides bind to the minor groove • Binds to GpC sequences in double-stranded DNA, stabilizing the duplex and inhibiting transcription • Inhibitor of eukaryotic RNA Pol I Eukaryotic RNA Polymerase II RNA Pol II is responsible for transcription to pre-mRNA - 8-12 subunits - Two large subunits are responsible for RNA synthesis - Regulated by phosphorylation of carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest subunit Unphosphorylated form is involved in initiation and phosphorylated form in elengation - some subunits are shared for RNA Pol I-III Type II Eukaryotic Promoters Consensus sequence: -90 5' CAAT Box (GGNCAATCT) -70 GC Box (GGGGCG) Promoter sequence Examples: -25 +1 3' TATA box (TATAAAA) Coding sequence Start site Initiation of transcription in eukaryotes • RNA Pol II can not initiate transcription by itself • Transcription factors (TFII) are required • The key initiation step is the recognition of TATA box by TBP TATA box-binding protein (TBP) Hydrogen bond donors and acceptors on each edge of a base pair Major groove To o de xy os b i r e To d Minor groove eox yri bo se Formation of RNA Polymerase II pre-initiation complex IID contains TBP that binds TATA box IIA stabilizes IID binding to promoter IIB binds initiation sequence Pol II binds IIB IIE stimulates transcription IIH has kinase and helicase activity Transcriptional control in eukaryotes Enhancers Upstream elements (CAAT, GC) Regulated expression Proximal elements (TATA box) Basal promoter Coding region Enhancer sequences examples in eukaryotes Post-transcriptional modifications of mRNA in eukaryotes 1. 5’ end CAP 2. polyA tail 3. splicing Eukaryotic mRNA is 5’-Capped PolyA Synthesis and termination of transcription RNA splicing in eukaryotes Primary transcript, hnRNA RNA Synthesis: Take Home Message 1) DNA sequences are translated into RNA messages by RNA polymerases. 2) The initiation of RNA synthesis is controlled by specific DNA promoter sequences. 3) The synthesis of RNA is governed by initiation, elongation, and termination steps. 4) Eukaryotic mRNA is extensively processed
