P-TEFb- the final frontier

Abstract: Regulation of gene expression is essential to all aspects of physiological processes in single-cell as well as multicellular organisms. It gives ultimately cells the ability to efficiently respond to extraand intracellular stimuli participating in cell cycle, growth, differentiation and survival. Regulation of gene expression is executed primarily at the level of transcription of specific mRNAs by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), typically in several distinct phases. Among them, transcription elongation is positive… Show more

“…C forms a high-molecularweight complex including the positive elongation factor b (P-TEFb; heterodimer of CDK9 and CCNT1/2) and several histone-modifying enzymes. 13 P-TEFb is usually stored in 'large complexes' consisting of HEXIM1, 7SK-RNA, MEPCE and LARP7, 19 and is liberated in the presence of AF4 family members or the AF4-MLL . N/MLL .…”

“…64 However, phosphorylation of CDK9 at this same residue, Thr186 and other residues is required for full enzymatic activity at promoters. [64][65][66][67][68][69] These studies suggest dynamic cycles of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation regulate P-TEFb activity to control the release of the RNA Pol II into productive elongation.…”

“…Considerando-se que um complexo P-TEFb contém um dos quatro diferentes tipos de ciclina (T1, T2a, T2b e K) associado a uma das duas isoformas da CDK9 (42 ou 55 kDa), a análise combinatória simples fornece 8 potenciais heterodímeros distintos (KOHOUTEK, 2009). A rigor, cada um destes complexos deve funcionar de modo independente, atuando sobre um subconjunto particular dos genes que são regulados pelo P-TEFb.…”

“…A estrutura cristalográfica do complexo Tat/P-TEFb só pôde ser elucidada recentemente (TAHIROV et al, 2010 (FUJINAGA et al, 1998;TAUBE et al, 2002;LIN et al, 2002). Hoje são conhecidos diversos exemplos de especialização entre os diferentes heterodímeros CDK9/ciclina, aos quais temos nos referido indistintamente como P-TEFb.Considerando-se que um complexo P-TEFb contém um dos quatro diferentes tipos de ciclina (T1, T2a, T2b e K) associado a uma das duas isoformas da CDK9 (42 ou 55 kDa), a análise combinatória simples fornece 8 potenciais heterodímeros distintos (KOHOUTEK, 2009 (RADHAKRISHNAN et al, 2006). Embora a CDK9 deva se auto-fosforilar com a formação do P-TEFb, seu recrutamento ao complexo de transcrição requer a desfosforilação prévia da Thr186 (representada pela etapa XXII).…”
