Structural basis of Ty3 retrotransposon integration at RNA Polymerase III-transcribed genes

Ty3 retrotransposon integrates with an exquisite specificity upstream of RNA Polymerase III-transcribed genes, such as transfer RNAs. Here the authors resolve a cryo-EM structure of an active Ty3 intasome in complex with a TFIIIB-bound tRNA promoter, shedding light into the molecular determinants of...

Sumario:Ty3 retrotransposon integrates with an exquisite specificity upstream of RNA Polymerase III-transcribed genes, such as transfer RNAs. Here the authors resolve a cryo-EM structure of an active Ty3 intasome in complex with a TFIIIB-bound tRNA promoter, shedding light into the molecular determinants of harmless retrotransposition.
