Transcription elongation factor SPT5; Component of the DRB sensitivity-inducing factor complex (DSIF complex), which regulates transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II. DSIF enhances transcriptional pausing at sites proximal to the promoter, which may facilitate the assembly of an elongation competent RNA polymerase II complex. DSIF may also promote transcriptional elongation within coding regions. DSIF is required for the transcriptional induction of heat shock response genes and regulation of genes which control anterior-posterior patterning during embryonic development; Belongs [...]

Cyclin-T; Regulatory subunit of the cyclin-dependent kinase pair (CDK9/cyclin T) complex, also called positive transcription elongation factor B (P-TEFb), which is proposed to facilitate the transition from abortive to production elongation by phosphorylating the CTD (carboxy- terminal domain) of the large subunit of RNA polymerase II (RNAP II).

DNA-directed RNA polymerase II subunit RPB1; DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Largest and catalytic component of RNA polymerase II which synthesizes mRNA precursors and many functional non-coding RNAs. Forms the polymerase active center together with the second largest subunit. Pol II is the central component of the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. It is composed of mobile elements that move relative to each other. RPB1 is part of the core element with the central large cl [...]

RNA polymerase II subunit A C-terminal domain phosphatase; This promotes the activity of RNA polymerase II.

Cyclin H homolog; Cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase regulator activity; RNA polymerase II CTD heptapeptide repeat kinase activity. It is involved in the biological process described with: regulation of cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity; transcription initiation from RNA polymerase II promoter; phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; transcription by RNA polymerase II.

Piccolo (pic) encodes the Ddb1 protein, which functions to recruit substrate receptors to Cul4-based E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, which catalyze the ubiquitylation and subsequent destruction of proteins that function in cell growth and proliferation as well as transcription, replication and repair of the genome.

RNA polymerase II 33kD subunit; DNA-directed 5'-3' RNA polymerase activity; RNA polymerase II activity; protein dimerization activity; DNA binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: transcription by RNA polymerase II; cellular response to heat.

Transcription elongation factor SPT6; Transcription elongation factor which binds histone H3 and enhances transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). Required for the transcriptional induction of heat shock response genes and for maximal recruitment of two other elongation factors, Spt5 and Paf1, to the induced Hsp70. Plays a critical role in normal fly development throughout the lifecycle.

Transcription elongation factor SPT4; Component of the DRB sensitivity-inducing factor complex (DSIF complex), which regulates transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II. DSIF enhances transcriptional pausing at sites proximal to the promoter, which may facilitate the assembly of an elongation competent RNA polymerase II complex. DSIF may also promote transcriptional elongation within coding regions. DSIF is required for the transcriptional induction of heat shock response genes and regulation of genes which control anterior-posterior patterning during embryonic development (By simi [...]
