Abstract excerpt
The RNA polymerase II (pol II) transcription complex undergoes a structural transition around registers 20-25, as indicated by ExoIII footprinting analyses. We have employed a highly purified system to prepare pol II complexes stalled at very precise positions during the initial stage of transcript elongation. Using potassium permanganate we analyzed the open region ('transcription bubble') of complexes stalled...
