An in vitro transcription system from Candida utilis is described. The template used is a hybrid plasmid containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae CYC1 promoter linked to a synthetic 377-bp G-minus casette (1). In vitro transcriptions are carried out in the presence of RNase. T1. Under these conditions only the transcripts that are resistant to RNase T1 accumulate. Using this protocol, it has been shown that in the absence of cytosolic factors RNA polymerase II (pol II) from C. utilis initiated RNA synthesis randomly. But both C. utilis and S. cerevisiae cell-free extracts could direct pol II from C. utilis to initiate transcription accurately. Results also indicated that the general transcription factors are functionally interchangeable between S. cerevisiae and C. utilis.
