摘要


The region in promoters that specifies the transcription machinery is called the core promoter, displaying core promoter elements (CPE) necessary for establishment of a preinitiation complex and the initiation of transcription. A classical CPE is the TATA box. In fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, a new CPE, called HomolD box, was discovered. Collectively, 141 ribosomal protein genes encoding the full set of 79 different ribosomal proteins and more than 60 other housekeeping genes display a HomolD box in the core promoter. Here, we show that transcription directed by the HomolD box requires the RNA polymerase II machinery, including the general transcription factors. Most intriguingly, however, we identify, by DNA affinity purification, Rrn7 as the protein binding to the HomolD box. Rrn7 is an evolutionary conserved member of the RNA polymerase I machinery involved in transcription initiation of core ribosomal DNA promoters. ChIP shows that Rrn7 cross-links to a ribosomal protein gene promoter containing the HomolD box but not to a promoter containing a TATA box. Taken together, our results suggest that Rrn7 is an excellent candidate to be involved in the coordination of ribosomal DNA and ribosomal gene transcription during ribosome synthesis and, therefore, offer a new perspective to study conservation and evolvability of regulatory networks in eukaryotes.
