Résumé

Negative elongation factor (NELF) is a four-subunit transcription elongation factor that mainly functions in maintaining the paused state of RNA polymerase II in eukaryotes. Upon binding to Pol II, NELF works synergistically with DRB sensitivity-inducing factor (DSIF) and inhibits transcription elongation of Pol II, which subsequently retains a stably paused state 20-60 base pairs downstream of the promoter. The promoter-proximal pausing of Pol II caused by NELF is a general mechanism of transcriptional regulation for most signal-responsive genes. To date, structural studies have significantly advanced our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of NELF. However, a high quality structural model clarifying the interaction details of this complex is still lacking. In this study, we solved the high resolution crystal structure of the NELF-B/C/E ternary complex. We observed detailed interactions between subunits and identified residues important for the association between NELF-B and NELF-E. Our work presents a precise model of the NELF complex, which will facilitate our understanding of its in vivo function.
