... complexes, RNA polymerase III (RNAPIII) seems to be atypical with respect to its mechanisms of regulation. One distinctive feature of most RNAPIII transcribed genes is that they are devoid of nucleosomes, which relates to the high levels of transcription. Moreover, most of the regulatory sequences...

...Tomasz W. Turowski; David Tollervey The highly abundant, small stable RNAs that are synthesized by RNA polymerase III (RNAPIII) have key functional roles, particularly in the protein synthesis apparatus. Their expression is metabolically demanding, and is therefore coupled to changing demands...

... target of rapamycin complex 1) itself. Sch9 phosphorylation of yeast Maf1 regulates Maf1 localization, but it is less clear whether phosphorylation of human MAF1 regulates its localization. Replacement of phosphosites with alanine decreases Pol III (RNA polymerase III) transcription, but the effect...

...G.A. Kassavetis; E.P. Geiduschek pol (RNA polymerase) III is charged with the task of transcribing nuclear genes encoding diverse small structural and catalytic RNAs. We present a brief review of the current understanding of several aspects of the pol III transcription apparatus. The focus...
