Abstract

Eukaryotic and archaeal RNA polymerase II (POL II) machinery is highly conserved, regardless of the extreme changes in promoter sequences in different organisms. The goal of our work is to find the cause of this conservatism. The representative sets of aligned promoter sequences of fifteen organisms belonging to different evolutional stages were studied. Their textual profiles, as well as profiles of the indexes that characterize the secondary structure and the mechanical and physicochemical properties, were analyzed. The evolutionarily stable, extremely heterogeneous special secondary structure of POL II core promoters was revealed, which includes two singular regions-hexanucleotide "INR" around TSS and octanucleotide "TATA element" of about -28 bp upstream. Such structures may have developed at some stage of evolution. It turned out to be so well matched for the pre-initiation complex formation and the subsequent initiation of transcription for POL II machinery that in the course of evolution there were selected only those nucleotide sequences that were able to reproduce these structural properties. The individual features of specific sequences representing the singular region of the promoter of each gene can affect the kinetics of DNA-protein complex formation and facilitate strand separation in double-stranded DNA at the TSS position.

摘要

真核生物和古菌 RNA 聚合酶 II(POL II)机制高度保守,无论在不同生物中启动子序列发生何种极端变化。我们工作的目标是找到这种保守性的原因。研究了属于不同进化阶段的 15 个生物体的具有代表性的对齐启动子序列集。分析了它们的文本特征,以及表征二级结构和力学及物理化学性质的指数特征。揭示了 POL II 核心启动子进化稳定、高度异质的特殊二级结构,其中包括两个独特的区域-TSS 周围的六核苷酸“INR”和大约 -28 bp 上游的八核苷酸“TATA 元件”。这些结构可能是在进化的某个阶段发展起来的。它们与 POL II 机制的起始复合物形成和随后的转录起始非常匹配,以至于在进化过程中只选择了那些能够再现这些结构特性的核苷酸序列。代表每个基因启动子独特区域的特定序列的个体特征可以影响 DNA-蛋白复合物形成的动力学,并有助于在 TSS 位置的双链 DNA 中进行链分离。
