Direct visualization of the conformational change of FUS/TLS upon binding to promoter-associated non-coding RNA†
Abstract
High-speed AFM revealed the conformational change of fused in sarcoma (FUS) from a compact to an extended structure upon binding of non-coding RNA, which is supposed to allow FUS to bind to CBP/p300 for transcriptional interference. Thus, a mechanistic insight into transcription regulation by FUS and non-coding RNA is provided.
