Abstract excerpt
The TATA-binding protein (TBP) is critical for transcription by all three nuclear RNA polymerases. In order to identify factors that interact with TBP, the nonnatural photoreactive amino acid rho-benzoyl-phenylalanine (BPA) was substituted onto the surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae TBP in vivo. Cross-linking of these TBP derivatives in isolated transcription preinitiation complexes or in living cells reveals...
