Title: Sub-2 Å cryo-EM structures of transcribing RNA polymerase II reveal critical roles of water molecules in catalysis.
Authors: Qingrong Li / Gangshun Yi / Yue Wu / Sophy Xu / Jenny Chong / Xuhui Huang / Peijun Zhang / Dong Wang /
Abstract: RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) is central to gene expression, but its catalytic mechanism remains elusive due to the absence of high-resolution structural data. The role of water molecules in RNA Pol ...RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) is central to gene expression, but its catalytic mechanism remains elusive due to the absence of high-resolution structural data. The role of water molecules in RNA Pol II catalysis is unknown. Here, we present 3 high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy structures of active Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA Pol II elongation complexes in distinct catalytic states: two pre-catalysis states at 1.96 Å and 2.26 Å resolution and a post-catalysis state at 2.33 Å resolution. Each structure contains over 700-1,350 ordered water molecules, many located at functionally critical positions. Comparative analysis shows that these waters play essential roles in proton-transfer steps during RNA Pol II catalysis, facilitating substrate recognition and trigger-loop folding during nucleotide addition. Strikingly, these waters are conserved between prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcription machineries (see Mueller and Darst). These findings provide unprecedented mechanistic insights into RNA Pol II catalysis and reveal vital and evolutionarily conserved roles of water molecules in transcription.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
