Abstract excerpt

We previously purified a yeast protein kinase that specifically hyperphosphorylates the carboxyl-terminal repeat domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II largest subunit and showed that this CTD kinase consists of three subunits of 58, 38, and 32 kDa. We have now cloned, sequenced, and characterized CTK...
