Investigating the role of Hmo1 in transcription by Pol I in yeast.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the yeast protein, high mobility group protein (Hmo1), in rRNA synthesis. For over twenty years, Hmo1 has been proposed to be an activator of transcription by Pol I, but its regulatory mechanism remains largely undefined. Therefore, we used native elongating transcript sequencing (NET-seq) to explore the role of this factor in transcription by Pol I. Our NET-seq results demonstrated that in cells lacking Hmo1 (hmo1D), Pol I occupancy was significantly increased across the rDNA template, indicating an increased pause propensity in these cells. These data suggest that Hmo1 is an important transcription elongation factor for Pol I.
