Yeast RNA polymerase II (Pol II) terminates transcription of coding transcripts through the
polyadenylation (pA) pathway and non-coding transcripts through the non-polyadenylation …

At the end of protein-coding genes, RNA polymerase (Pol) II undergoes a concerted
transition that involves 3′-processing of the pre-mRNA and transcription termination. Here …

Both RNA polymerase I and II (Pol I and Pol II) in budding yeast employ a functionally
homologous “torpedo-like” mechanism to promote transcriptional termination. For two well …

Most eukaryotic genes are transcribed by RNA polymerase II (Pol II), including those that
produce mRNAs and many noncoding functional RNAs. Proper expression of these genes …

RNA polymerase II synthesizes a diverse set of transcripts including both protein-coding and
non-coding RNAs. One major difference between these two classes of transcripts is the …

Saccharomyces cerevisiae has approximately 200 copies of the 35S rDNA gene, arranged
tandemly on chromosome XII. This gene is transcribed by RNA polymerase I (Pol I) and the …

Transcription termination of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) on protein-coding genes in S.
cerevisiae relies on pA site recognition by 3′ end processing factors. Here we demonstrate …

Abstract RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) termination is dependent on RNA processing signals as
well as specific terminator elements located downstream of the poly (A) site. One of the two …

Eukaryotic RNA polymerase (Pol) III terminates transcription at short runs of T residues in the
coding DNA strand. By genomic analysis, we found that T 5 and T 4 are the shortest Pol III …

Pausing of transcribing RNA polymerase is regulated and creates opportunities to control
gene expression. Research in metazoans has so far mainly focused on RNA polymerase II …
