Abstract excerpt
RNA polymerase II (Pol II) Mediator plays an essential role in both basal and activated transcription. Previously, subunits of the Sin4 Mediator complex (Sin4, Pgd1, Gal11, and Med2) have been implicated in both positive and negative transcriptional regulation. Furthermore, it was proposed that this subcomplex constitutes an activator-binding domain. A yeast nuclear-extract system was used to investigate the...
