Abstract
|
 |
|
In bacteria, the activation of gene transcription at many promoters is simple
and only involves a single activator. The cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate
receptor protein (CAP), a classic activator, is able to activate transcription
independently through two different mechanisms. Understanding the class I
mechanism requires an intact transcription activation complex (TAC) structure at
a high resolution. Here we report a high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy
structure of an intactEscherichia coliclass I TAC containing a CAP dimer,
a σ70-RNA polymerase (RNAP) holoenzyme, a complete class I
CAP-dependent promoter DNA, and a de novo synthesized RNA oligonucleotide. The
structure shows how CAP wraps the upstream DNA and how the interactions recruit
RNAP. Our study provides a structural basis for understanding how activators
activate transcription through the class I recruitment mechanism.
