OverviewOverview

After mRNA transcription termination in eukaryotes, the, hyperphosphorylated form of RNA polymerase II (pol II0) must be recycled, by TFIIF-associating C-terminal domain phosphatase (FCP1), the phosphatase, responsible for dephosphorylating the C-terminal domain of the largest, polymerase subunit. Transcription factor (TF)-IIF stimulates the activity, of FCP1, and the RNA polymerase II-associating protein 74 subunit of TFIIF, forms a complex with FCP1 in both human and yeast. Here, we report a, cocrystal structure of the winged-helix domain of human RNA polymerase, II-associating protein 74 bound to the alpha-helical C terminus of human, FCP1 (residues 944-961). These results illustrate the molecular mechanism, by which TFIIF efficiently recruits FCP1 to the pol II transcription, machinery for recycling of the polymerase.
