PTRF (Pol I and transcript release factor) is required for dissociation of paused ternary RNA Polymerase I transcription complexes: recombinant PTRF releases both Pol I and nascent transcripts from the template in vitro, interacts with TTF-I (transcription termination factor), interacts with Pol I, and binds specifically to transcripts containing 3'-terminal uridylates of pre-rRNA; substitution of 3'-terminal uridylates by guanine abolishes binding and impairs release activity. |

PTRF interacts physically with the largest subunit of murine RNA Pol I and with both TTF-I and its yeast homolog Reb1p (but not the lac repressor); PTRF promotes release of terminated transcripts from ternary complexes paused by TTF-I/Reb1p but cannot dissociate Pol I paused by the lac repressor, demonstrating specificity for termination-factor-mediated pausing. |

PTRF is a major peripheral protein at the cytosolic surface of caveolae in human adipocytes, co-localizes with caveolin-1 by immunofluorescence, is present in intact and five differently truncated forms at the caveolae surface, contains phosphorylation sites at Ser-36, Ser-40, Ser-365 and Ser-366, and is cleaved at two endogenous calpain-specificity sites flanked by phosphorylated sequences within PEST domains. |
