The CTD undergoes dynamic changes in phosphorylation during the transcription cycle, and this plays a significant role in coordinating its multiple activities. But how these changes themselves are regulated is not well understood. Here we show that the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase Pin1 influences the phosphorylation status of the CTD in vitro by inhibiting the CTD phosphatase FCP1 and stimulating CTD phosphorylation by cdc2/cyclin B. This −/− is reflected in vivo by accumulation of hypophosphorylated RNAP II in pin1 cells, and of a novel hyper-hyperphosphorylated TI - Pin1 modulates the structure and function of human RNA polymerase II JF - Genes & Development DO - 10.1101/gad.1135503 DA - 2003-01-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/pin1-modulates-the-structure-and-function-of-human-rna-polymerase-ii-34QuvbF6Sm DP - DeepDyve ER -
