Factors and mechanisms of archaeal transcription termination and DNA repair
Altmetrics
Abstract
RNA synthesis by RNA polymerase (RNAP) is an essential process and must be properly regulated both temporally and spatially to ensure cellular health in dynamic environments. Regulation of RNA synthesis in response to internal and environmental stimuli is typically achieved through interactions with RNAP at all stages of the transcription cycle- initiation, elongation, and termination. While studies of transcription initiation and elongation have identified multiple regulatory transcription factors and defined mechanisms, only a handful of protein factors able to terminate transcription have yet ...
