Abstract excerpt
RNA polymerase I (Pol I) is dedicated to transcription of the large ribosomal DNA (rDNA). The mechanism of Pol I recruitment onto rDNA promoters is poorly understood. Here we present evidence that subunit A43 of Pol I interacts with transcription factor Rrn3: conditional mutations in A43 were found to disrupt the transcriptionally competent Pol I-Rrn3 complex, the two proteins formed a stable complex when...
