细胞逆转录转座子及其功能研究细胞逆转录转座子(LTRs)是一类特殊的转座子,它们在细胞DNA中构成了很重要的基因组组成元件。
转座子是可以改变基因排列和表达的DNA序列,因此在基因组进化和调控中具有至关重要的作用。
在本文中,我将深入探讨细胞逆转录转座子及其功能研究。
一、逆转录转座子的概述逆转录转座子(retrotransposon)是由RNA媒介的“逆向反录”过程使DNA复制插入到基因组中的移动元件。
它们是真核生物基因组中的最重要的复制性基因组元件之一。
逆转录转座子在细胞中存在不同的亚型,主要分为长镜像转座子(LTRs)和非长镜像逆转录转座子(non-LTRs)。
其中,LTRs是带有长镜像序列的逆转录转座子,能与终端重复序列(terminal repeat sequences)配对形成类似病毒颗粒的粒子,是目前已知的大部分逆转录转座子的一种。
二、LTRs的结构和功能LTRs由内部反向转录(reverse transcription)酶、内部RNA转录起始位点(promoter)和长镜像序列组成。
内部反向转录酶可转录,逆转录RNA并将其插入到新的位点中。
内部RNA转录起始位点能驱动LTR的转录,这样它们就能制造足够数量的RNA,并使它们转录逆行后转化为DNA。
而长镜像序列则起到了重要的调控作用,包括DNA复合物的形成,RNA转录和后转录活动的调节。
虽然细胞逆转录转座子的具体功能还不是很清楚,但是它们已经被发现对基因调控和表达具有重要的影响。
例如,有些LTRs可以充当编码转录因子(transcription factor)的端点,从而控制基因表达和调节。
此外,LTRs也可能影响DNA复制、修复和重组过程,从而对细胞的遗传稳定性产生影响。
三、LTRs的研究进展随着分子生物学和基因组学的进步,LTRs的研究进展迅速。
目前已经有大量的研究表明,LTRs在多种生物体中广泛分布,是基因组演化和调控的重要组成部分。

Initiation of transcription1 IntroductionTranscription in eukaryotic cells is divided into three classes. Each class is transcribed by a different RNA polymerase:•RNA polymerase I transcribes rRNA•RNA polymerase II transcribes mRNA•RNA polymerase III transcribes tRNA, 5SrRNA and other small RNAs.The general factors are required for the mechanics of initiating RNA synthesis at all promoters.•join with RNA polymerase to form a complex•determine the site of initiation.•The general factors together with RNA polymerase constitute the basal transcription apparatus.•The upstream factors are DNA-binding proteins that recognize specific short consensus elements located upstream of the startpoint. They increase the efficiency of initiation, and are required for a promoter to function at an adequate level.•The inducible factors function in the same general way as the upstream factors, but have a regulatory role. They are synthesized or activated at specific times or in specific tissues, and they are therefore responsible for the control of transcription patterns in time and space. The sequences that they bind are called response elements.•The promoters for RNA polymerases I and II are (mostly) upstream of the startpoint•Some promoters for RNA polymerase III lie downstream of the startpoint.•Each promoter contains characteristic sets of short conserved sequences that are recognized by theA typical gene transcribed by RNA polymerase IIhas a promoter that extends upstream from the sitewhere transcription is initiated. The promotercontains several short (<10 bp)sequence elementsthat bind transcription factors, dispersed over >200 bp. An enhancer containing a moreclosely packed array of elements that also bindtranscription factors may be located several kb distant.Enhancer element is a cis-acting sequence thatincreases the utilization of (some) eukaryotic promoters,(upstream or downstream) relative to the promoter.it inhibits transcription by certain eukaryotic RNA polymerases, especially RNA polymerase II.•All eukaryotic RNA polymerases are large proteins, appearing as aggregates of >500 kD. They typically have 8~14 subunits.•The purified enzyme can undertake template-dependent transcription of RNA, but is not able to initiate selectively at promoters.•The three largest subunits have homology to βand β’ subunits of bacterial RNA polymerase. •Three of the remaining subunits are common to all the RNA polymerasespolymerase II has a carboxy-terminal domain (CTD), which consists ofyr-Ser-Pro-Thr-Ser-Pro-SerThere are ~26 repeats in yeast and ~50 in mammals. The number of repeats is important,threonine res idues, which is involved in theInitiation via the internal pol III promoters involves the assembly factors TFIIIA and TFIIIC, the initiation factor TFIIIB, and RNA polymerase III.Promoters for RNA polymerase III may consist of bipartite sequences downstream of the startpoint, with boxA separated from either boxC or boxB. Or they may consist of separated sequences upstream of the startpoint(Oct, PSE, T ATA).• In both cases, the binding of TFIIIC in turn enables TFIIIBto bind to a sequence surrounding the startpoint.• TFIIIA and TFIIIC are assembly factors , TFIIIB functions as a "positioning factor," responsible for localizing RNA polymerase correctly. Like SL1 at the pol I promoter.• and also in the corresponding transcription factor (TFIID)for RNA polymerase II • The upstream elements function in a similar manner in promoters for both polymerases II and III. •Initiation at an upstream promoter for RNA polymerase III can occur on a short region thatimmediately precedes the startpoint and contains only the TA TA element.• However, efficiency of transcription is much increased by the presence of the PSE and OCT elements. • eukaryotic transcription describes the assembly of transcription factors at the promoter before RNA polymerase binds.• For the type 1 and type 2 internal promoters, the assembly factors ensure that TFIIIB (which includes TBP) is bound just upstream of the startpoint, to provide the positioning information.• For the upstream promoters, transcription factors that directly recognize the upstream sites form a complex (including TBP) that is recognized by RNA polymerase III.5。
Leading Edge PreviewsCell 132, March 21, 2008 ©2008 Elsevier Inc. 917Intrinsic terminators for E. coli RNA poly-merase, also known as simple or factor-independent terminators, were the first to be discovered and soonbecame prototypes for themost abundant class of termi-nators in Eubacteria. They areused both to signal transcrip-tion termination at the ends ofoperons and as control ele-ments in the attenuators andriboswitches that are founddownstream of the promot-ers of a variety of bacterialbiosynthetic operons. Intrinsicterminators consist of a hair-pin structure followed by a 7–9nucleotide U-tract, sometimesinterrupted by one or moreother residues, at the 3′ endof the RNA (see Figure 1A),and many experiments haveshown that these features areessential for the functioning ofthese terminators (Nudler andGottesman, 2002).As their name suggests,intrinsic terminators are recog-nized directly by the multisub-unit bacterial RNA polymerasecore enzyme. Although thepath of nucleic acids within the structure of an RNA poly-merase elongation complex has been determined (Korzheva et al., 2000), it has not been easy to understand either the energetics or the mechanism of transcription termination. In this issue of Cell , Larson et al. (2008) describe the use of single-molecule assays involving optical traps to monitor elongation through intrinsic terminators. By attaching RNA polymerase and either one end of its DNA template (Figure 1B) or the 5′ end of its nascent RNA transcript(Figure 1C) to different beads, this assay allows force to be applied between the RNA poly-merase molecule and either its template or its transcript. The results of this analysis have deepened our understanding of the functioning of these ter-minators.Because the RNA:DNA hybrid in the transcription bubble is 9 bp long (Gnatt et al., 2001), it consists entirely (or almost entirely) of rU:dA base pairs at the termina-tion site. The presence of the U-tract is sufficient to cause RNA polymerase to pause (Gusarov and Nudler, 1999; Yarnell and Roberts, 1999), thereby providing a kinetic window for termination. The rU:dA hybrid is also particu-larly weak, and weak hybrids have the potential to cause RNA polymerase to back-track, moving the 3′ end of the RNA away from the catalytic center of RNA polymerase and into its secondary chan-nel (Nudler and Gottesman, 2002). However, backtracking should not promote dissocia-tion of the elongation complex because the RNA:DNA hybrid would become stronger, notweaker. In any case, back-Transcription Termination:Pulling Out All the StopsJack F .

(2008) describe the use of optical traps to pull on the DNA template or RNA transcript and thereby explore the termination mechanism for E. coli RNA polymerase at intrinsic terminators. Their results imply that, depending on the nature of the terminator sequence, RNA polymerase uses either hypertranslocation or RNA:DNA shearing to destabilize the hybrid inthe transcription bubble.Figure 1. Single-Molecule Analysis of Intrinsic Terminators (A) Structures of three intrinsic terminators illustrating their characteristic RNA hairpins and U-tracts. The bases where termination occurs are underlined.(B) Experimental set-up for the DNA-pulling assay (Larson et al., 2008). RNA polymerase (green) and one end of its DNA template (dark blue) are attached to different polystyrene beads (light blue) suspended in two separate optical traps (orange). The nascent RNA (red) is untethered. The arrow indicates the direction of transcription. In this orientation, the applied force assists translo-cation by RNA polymerase.(C) Experimental set-up for the RNA-pulling assay. In this case, the nascent RNA is tethered to one of the beads via hybridization to a DNA handle.tracking may be inhibited by the pres-ence of the RNA hairpin. Consistent with this expectation, Larson et al. found that application to the RNA polymerase of a hindering force along the DNA to assist backtracking did not generally affect ter-mination in their assay.The RNA hairpin that precedes the U-tract has a key role in termination. There is evidence that formation of the base of the hairpin somehow leads to disruption of the upstream portion of the hybrid, weakening the hybrid and thereby facilitating termination (Gusarov and Nudler, 1999; Yarnell and Roberts, 1999; Komissarova et al., 2002). Indeed, interaction between the hairpin and RNA polymerase is stabilized by the elonga-tion factor NusA, which increases RNA polymerase pause times at hairpin-dependent pause sites and increases the efficiencies of intrinsic terminators (Nudler and Gottesman, 2002). Consis-tent with expectations, Larson et al. found that termination was inhibited when suf-ficient force was exerted on the 5′end of the nascent RNA so as to begin dis-rupting the hairpin. However, one of the curiosities of their study is that exertion of a lesser force on the RNA increased the efficiency of termination. They used single-stranded DNA molecules comple-mentary to the transcript to show that this is apparently caused by the forma-tion in the upstream RNA of weak sec-ondary structures that compete with the formation of the terminator hairpin.In principle, a different way to shorten and weaken the RNA:DNA hybrid is the forward translocation by RNA poly-merase in the absence of concomitant RNA synthesis. It has been shown previ-ously that RNA polymerase hypertrans-location is an important component of the termination mechanism at the t500 intrinsic terminator (derived from bac-teriophage φ82) (Santangelo and Rob-erts, 2004). When Larson et al. applied an assisting or hindering force to the RNA polymerase (as shown in Figure 1B), the kinetics of release were altered for t500 and the termination efficiency was altered for a hairpin mutant of t500. Moreover, the optical trap data for t500 predicted hypertranslocation by severalnucleotides, consistent with the find-ings of Santangelo and Roberts (2004).Assisting or hindering forces did not,however, affect the efficiencies for twoother intrinsic terminators, his (from theattenuator of the E. coli his operon) andtR2 (from bacteriophage λ), indicatingthat these terminators, unlike t500, donot apparently use hypertranslocation toweaken the hybrid.How then does release occur at theseother terminators? Larson et al. foundthat applying tension between the RNA 5′end and the RNA polymerase (as shownin Figure 1C) led to sequence-dependentrelease at the U-tract. In this case, theypropose that the event that leads to ter-mination is shearing of the RNA:DNAhybrid by about 1 bp. Because shearingshould be energetically more favorablefor terminators containing pure U-tracts,like his (Figure 1A, left), or perhaps onlyone non-U residue, like tR2 (Figure 1A,right), and less favorable for t500 (Figure1A, middle), which contains two non-Uresidues in its U-tract, this may explainwhy t500, unlike the other terminators inthis study, requires hypertranslocationby RNA polymerase. Hypertransloca-tion requires melting of the DNA aheadof the termination site. Therefore, thishypothesis is also consistent with previ-ous observations that the sequence ofthe DNA ahead of the U-tract specificallyaffects termination when the sequencedownstream of the hairpin containsmultiple non-U residues (Reynolds andChamberlin, 1992).Exerting force on the DNA or RNA isexpected to alter the energy landscapefor termination if the termination eventrequires motion of the RNA polymerasewith respect to one or other nucleic acid.As a consequence, Larson et al. wereable to use their data to derive a quan-titative model that predicts terminationefficiency as a function of the sequencesand predicted stabilities of the RNAhairpin and RNA:DNA hybrid. Pulling onthe RNA with sufficient force to dissoci-ate the closing base pairs of the hairpinreduced the termination efficiency. Theypostulate that it is the closing of thesebase pairs that generates the signalthat leads to forward translocation orshearing of the hybrid (or both), as wellas disruption of the upstream portion ofthe hybrid, and the energy that makesthem possible. A short rU:dA hybridwould dissociate spontaneously if notfor its stabilization by contact with RNApolymerase (Gnatt et al., 2001), imply-ing that RNA polymerase would have adirect role in the shearing mechanism.Given that the base and loop of thehairpin are located far from the catalyticcenter of RNA polymerase and mostof the hybrid, transmission of this sig-nal must involve allosteric movementswithin RNA polymerase that ultimatelyalter its contacts with the hybrid andlead to melting or shearing of the hybridor hypertranslocation. It is known thata specific contact between the hairpinand the flap domain of RNA polymeraseis required for the functioning of hairpinpause sites (Toulokhonov et al., 2001).Exactly how the hairpin of an intrinsicterminator causes an allosteric signal tobe transmitted within RNA polymeraseto promote termination is an importantsubject for future investigation.ReFeRenceSGnatt, A.L., Cramer, P., Fu, J., Bushnell, D.A., andKornberg, R.D.

mTranscript-AssistedTranscriptional ProofreadingNikolay Zenkin,1*Yulia Yuzenkova,1Konstantin Severinov 1,2,3*Fidelity of template-dependent nucleic acid synthesis is the main determinant of stable heredity and error-free gene expression.The mechanism (or mechanisms)ensuring fidelity of transcription by DNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RNAPs)is not fully understood.Here,we show that the 3¶end–proximal nucleotide of the nascent transcript stimulates hydrolysis of the penultimatephosphodiester bond by providing active groups and coordination bonds to the RNAP active center.This stimulation is much higher in the case of misincorporated nucleotide.We show that during transcription elongation,the hydrolytic reaction stimulated by misincorporated nucleotides proofreads most of the misincorporation events and thus serves as an intrinsic mechanism of transcription fidelity.The mechanism of transcription is high-ly conserved in all living organisms.In the RNAP elongation complex,the 3¶end of the nascent RNA can occupy a post-translocated,a pretranslocated,or a back-tracked state (Fig.1A).In each of these states,the RNAP active center performs different reactions,i.e.,the forward reaction of nucleoside triphosphate (NTP)addition or hydrolytic cleavage of the nascent RNA (Fig.1A).Catalysis by the RNAP active center depends on two Mg 2þions (1–7)that activate reacting groups and stabilize leav-ing groups during nucleophilic attack on the phosphorus (4,8).In cellular RNAPs,only one Mg 2þion (MgI)is bound tightly in the ac-tive center.The other Mg 2þion,MgII (2,4–7),is bound weakly,but its binding is stabilized by the triphosphate moiety of the incoming NTP (5).The hydrolytic transcript cleavage reaction,characteristic of pretranslocated and backtracked elongation complexes (9)(Fig.1A),is slow compared to the forward RNA polymerization reaction,presumably because of poor binding of MgII (4).Although the rate of misincorporation of nucleotides by RNAP is much slower than the rate of incorporation of correct nucleo-side 5¶-monophosphates (NMPs)(10,11),the relatively low selectivity of RNAP (12)makes misincorporation unavoidable,suggesting the existence of a proofreading mechanism.To define such a mechanism,12complexes with mismatched NMP at RNA 3¶end (misincorpo-rated elongation complexes,MECs)modelingall possible misincorporation events and 4correct complexes (correct elongation com-plexes,CECs)were assembled by means of 4DNA templates that differed from each other only by a base pair at the þ1register (corresponding to the transcript 3¶end)and 45¶end–labeled RNAs that were identical except for the 3¶-terminal base (13)(fig.S1).Complexes were assembled in the absence of Mg 2þand were therefore inactive.Upon addition of Mg 2þto MECs,RNAP efficiently cleaved the penultimate (P2)phos-phodiester bond.No P1(ultimate phospho-diester bond)(Fig.1A)cleavage was observed (Fig.1,B and C),suggesting that MECs are backtracked by 1base pair relative to the pretranslocated state (Fig.1A).Cleavage of P2was much slower in CECs than in the cor-responding MECs (Table 1),as expected for active,not backtracked,complexes.However,because no P1cleavage was observed in CECs (Fig.1,B and C),stabilization of the backtracked state in MECs cannot explain preferential P2cleavage,which was also observed with eukaryal and archeal RNAPs (10,14–17)and appears to be a general phenomenon.Noncomplementary NTPs bind in the RNAP E-site close to the active center and stimulate P1cleavage (4).Addition of nonhydrolyzable E to prevent any possibility of (mis)incorporation in the nascent RNA ^NTP analog APcPP A adenosine-5¶-E (a ,b )-methyleno ^triphosphate Z (Fig.1C),noncomplementary to the DNA template guanosine in register þ2,led to stimulation of P1cleavage in CECs.No such stimulation was observed in MECs,indicating that base-pairing of the RNA _s 3¶end is required for NTP-assisted cleavage.Noncomplementary NTPs also inhibited P21Waksman Institute,2Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry,Rutgers University,Piscataway,NJ 08854,USA.3Institute of Molecular Genetics,Russian

nonhydrolyzable NTP (APcPP).REPORTS28JULY 2006VOL 313SCIENCE518cleavage in both CECs and MECs in a dose-dependent manner (Fig.1C).Noncomplemen-tary NTPs are known to bind in the so-called E-site of the RNAP active center,the same site where initial interaction of correct NTPs with RNAP occurs.To explain the inhibitory effect,we postulate that in backtracked com-plexes,the 3¶-terminal NMP also occupies the E-site (or an overlapping site,Fig.2)and activates P2cleavage in a way that is simi-lar to P1cleavage activation by noncomple-mentary NTP.Binding of NTP in the E-site displaces the transcript _s 3¶end and destabi-lizes the backtracked state,thus inhibiting P2cleavage.Noncomplementary NTP activates P1cleavage by stabilizing MgII through interac-tion with the b and g phosphates (4,5).Because these phosphates are absent in the 3¶-terminal NMP,MgII coordination and/or P2cleavage may be stimulated by the terminal NMP itself.This hypothesis predicts that Mg 2þdependence of P2cleavage,which reflects the complex affinity for MgII (4),should have a lower dissociation constant (K d )than the intrinsic (unassisted by non-complementary NTP)K d of P1hydrolysis (9100mM)(4).This expectation was fulfilled for both MECs and CECs (Table 1).The lowest apparent K d observed (8mM)is close to the K d of P1hydrolysis stimulated by noncomplementary NTP (4).Thus,the 3¶-terminal NMP,either matched or mismatched,increases the P2cleavage velocity by increasing affinity for MgII.A high rate of P2cleavage could not be solely due to a decreased K d for MgII,be-cause cleavage velocity at saturating Mg 2þconcentrations (k cat )differed depending on the nature of 3¶-terminal NMP (Table 1).For example,comparisons of complexes con-taining A,G,or U instead of correct C at the 3¶end (Table 1rows 2,7,and 15,cor-respondingly)reveal that the cleavage re-action k cat values in different complexes differ significantly (0.14,0.028,and 0.015s j 1,respectively).This suggests that some groups of the transcript _s 3¶-end NMPs par-ticipate,directly or indirectly,in cleavage.Whereas the k cat of P2cleavage in MECs is determined by the properties of the reaction itself,in CECs it is strongly influenced by base-pairing of the 3¶end with the template strand,which affects the probability of back-tracked state occupancy.To avoid this compli-cation,we focused on MECs only (supporting online text).High pH deprotonates the active water molecule stimulating phosphodiester hydroly-sis by the RNAP active center.The stimula-tion depends on the reaction mechanism and should plateau at a pH equal to the system p K value.Therefore,if mismatched nucleotides were involved in cleavage,different profiles of cleavage reaction dependence on pH are expected for different MECs.This expecta-tion was fulfilled (fig.S2).The shapes of pH curves were different from that of the previously reported P1cleavage curve (4)(dotted line in fig.S2),indicating that the mechanism of P2cleavage was distinct from intrinsic RNAP-catalyzed P1hydrolysis.Whereas most P2cleavage profiles pla-teaued at about pH 9.5,some had a different E U(C)MECs ^plateau or even double (A-MECs)plateaus.Thus,different acid/base systems provided by the transcript 3¶-terminal nucle-otide participate in P2cleavage in different MECs.The dependence of cleavage reaction properties for complexes containing misin-corporated cytidine 5¶-monophosphate (CMP)and uridine 5¶-monophosphate (UMP)on the þ1DNA template-strand base may be ex-plained by effects of local sequence-dependent deviations of nucleic acids structure near the active center on the reaction pathway (support-ing online text).To check which chemical groups of 3¶-terminal NMP participate in MgII stabilization and P2hydrolysis,we determined the cleavage reaction K d and k cat in MECs with RNAs containing chemical modifications in the phos-phate,sugar,and base of the 3¶-terminal nucleo-tide (Fig.2).The results (Table 1and table S1),discussed in detail in the supporting online text,are summarized below (see also fig.S3).With misincorporated adenosine 5¶-mono-phosphate,one of the P1oxygens interacts with the 3¶-hydroxyl,which in turn coordinates MgII.Another P1oxygen orients the active water molecule.The 2¶-hydroxyl does not participate in the reaction.N-7of the purine ring co-ordinates MgII;the amino group in position 6participates in water-molecule orientation or,alternatively,acts,together with nitrogen in position 1,as a general acid-base system.For misincorporated guanosine 5¶-monophosphate (GMP),one of the P1oxygens orients active water.The 2¶and 3¶hydroxyls do not participate in the reaction.N-7of the base coordinates MgII.The amino group in position 2fixes the GMP moiety,probably through interactions with the protein,making the reaction insensitive to local variations in nucleic acid structure.Table 1.K d for Mg 2þand k cat of P2cleavage for all possible CECs and MECs.All

P1bond orientation,which appears to be sensitive to local variations of nucleic acids structure.In one type of complex,P1interacts with the 3¶-hydroxyl,which coordinates MgII.In other complexes,this interaction is absent,and the 3¶-hydroxyl does not chelate MgII.P1also participates in a network of hydrogen bonding that positions the active water molecule.The 2¶-hydroxyl is dispensable.Nitrogen in position 3of the base chelates MgII.Finally,with misincorporated UMP,P1interacts with the 3¶-hydroxyl,po-sitioning it to coordinate MgII or to orient the active water molecule.P1also participates in coordination of the active water molecule.The 2¶-hydroxyl is dispensable.The keto group in position 4of the base either positions the water molecule or acts in concert with N-3as a general base/acid.Taken together,the results indicate that nucleotides that are misincorporated at the transcript 3¶end participate in their own ex-cision.In contrast to the previously described stimulation of transcript cleavage by noncom-plementary NTP (4),which can be regarded as B substrate-assisted catalysis [(18,19),the reaction described here represents B product-assisted catalysis [and,therefore,can directly affect transcription fidelity.To show that excision of misincorporated NMP via P2cleavage can prevent transcription past misincorporated NMP,we supplied MECs with NTP specified by the þ2register of the template and monitored transcript extension (Fig.3).As noted for RNAPs from eukaryotes and archaea (10,17,20,21),the rate of incorporation of NTPs by MECs was much lower than by CECs (7,22)and was compara-ble (k obs ,0.03s j 1in the presence of 1mM NTP)to the rate of P2cleavage (Table 1).Presumably,slow elongation of misincorpo-rated transcripts is due to stabilization of MECs in a backtracked state and to the occupancy of the primary NTP binding site,the E-site,by misincorporated NMP.At 100m M NTP,only 5to 13%of MECs (30%for G-MEC)extended the RNA,whereas the rest of RNA was cleaved and,therefore,the misincorporated NMP was removed (Fig.3B).In the presence of 1mM NTP (a physiological concentration),È30%of complexes (50%for G-MEC)extended past incorrect NMP,whereas the remainder underwent cleavage (Fig.3B).When NTP was added together with transcript cleavage factor GreA,very low (except 20%for G-MEC)incorporation was detected,and mismatched NMP was removed (Fig.3B).Thus,cleavage stimulated by misincorporated nucleotides is sufficient to proofread most misincorpora-tion events.This activity is stimulated by transcript cleavage factors that were previ-ously suggested to contribute to transcrip-tional fidelity (10,12,17,21)and that act by direct stabilization of MgII in the RNAP ac-tive site (23).The importance of transcriptional proof-reading for error-free gene expression was suggested (24).In addition,complexes con-taining misincorporated nucleotides elongate RNA slowly,which should impede expression of actively transcribed genes and may interfere with DNA replication.Cleavage factors cannot be solely responsible for removal of misin-corporated nucleotides,because they are not essential for cells.Our results reveal a proof-reading mechanism that may be sufficient to control transcription misincorporation in theabsence of cleavage factors.The mechanism,which is likely evolutionarily conserved,also allows the removal of 2¶-deoxy NMPs erro-neously incorporated in RNA,because ribo and 2¶-deoxy NMPs cleaved out with the same efficiency.In the RNA-protein world,when RNAP was likely replicating RNA genomes (25),the rela-tively low fidelity of RNAP-catalyzed synthesis could not have been sufficient for stable maintenance of large RNA genomes in the absence of cleavage factors (24).A proofreading and repair mechanism similar to the one de-scribed here could have allowed a large RNA genome of the last common universal ancestor to exist.References and Notes1.T.A.Steitz,Nature
