Members of atRNA Gly 1 multigene family from the silkwormBombyx mori have been classified based on their transcriptions in homologous nuclear extracts, into three groups of highly, moderately and poorly transcribed genes. Because all these gene copies have identical coding sequences and consequently identical promoter elements (the A and B boxes), the flanking sequences modulate their expression levels. Here we demonstrate the inter-action of transcription factor TFIIIB with these genes and its role in regu-lating differential transcriptions | ềFEBS Journal Transcription of individual tRNAGv genes from within a multigene family is regulated by transcription factor TFIIIB Akhila Parthasarthy and Karumathil P.

Because all these gene copies have identical coding sequences and consequently identical promoter elements the A and B boxes the flanking sequences modulate their expression levels. Here we demonstrate the interaction of transcription factor TFIIIB with these genes and its role in regulating differential transcriptions. The binding of TFIIIB to the poorly transcribed gene tRNAjGly-6 7 was less stable compared with binding of TFIIIB to the highly expressed copy tRNAGly -1. The presence of a 5 upstream TATA sequence closer to the coding region in tRNAGly-6 7 suggested that the initial binding of TFIIIC to the A and B boxes sterically hindered anchoring of TFIIIB via direct interactions leading to lower stability of TFIIIC-B-DNA complexes. Also the multiple TATATAA sequences present in the flanking regions of this poorly transcribed gene successfully competed for TFIIIB reducing transcription. The transcription level could be enhanced to some extent by supplementation of TFIIIB but not by TATA box binding protein. The poor transcription of tRNAGly-6 7 was thus attributed both to the .
