Abstract excerpt
To understand the initiation of the transcription of protein-coding genes, we have dissected the role of the basal transcription/DNA repair factor TFIIH. Having succeeded in reconstituting a functionally active TFIIH from baculovirus recombinant polypeptides, we were able to analyze the role of XPB, XPD, and cdk7 subunits in the transcription reaction. Designing mutated recombinant subunits, we show that the XPB...
