Citation | Journal: Sci Adv / Year: 2023Title: Structural insights into human TFIIIC promoter recognition. Authors: Wolfram Seifert-Davila / Mathias Girbig / Luis Hauptmann / Thomas Hoffmann / Sebastian Eustermann / Christoph W Müller / ![]() Abstract: Transcription factor (TF) IIIC recruits RNA polymerase (Pol) III to most of its target genes. Recognition of intragenic A- and B-box motifs in transfer RNA (tRNA) genes by TFIIIC modules τA and τB ...Transcription factor (TF) IIIC recruits RNA polymerase (Pol) III to most of its target genes. Recognition of intragenic A- and B-box motifs in transfer RNA (tRNA) genes by TFIIIC modules τA and τB is the first critical step for tRNA synthesis but is mechanistically poorly understood. Here, we report cryo-electron microscopy structures of the six-subunit human TFIIIC complex unbound and bound to a tRNA gene. The τB module recognizes the B-box via DNA shape and sequence readout through the assembly of multiple winged-helix domains. TFIIIC220 forms an integral part of both τA and τB connecting the two subcomplexes via a ~550-amino acid residue flexible linker. Our data provide a structural mechanism by which high-affinity B-box recognition anchors TFIIIC to promoter DNA and permits scanning for low-affinity A-boxes and TFIIIB for Pol III activation. | ||||||
