Article

An atypical RNA polymerase involved in RNA silencing shares small subunits with RNA polymerase II.

Nature structural & molecular biology - 1 Jan 2009

Huang Linfeng, Jones Alexandra M E, Searle Iain, Patel Kanu, Vogler Hannes, Hubner Nina C, Baulcombe David C

Abstract excerpt

Genetic evidence indicates that plant-specific homologs of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase (Pol) II large subunits form Pol IV and Pol V complexes involved in small interfering RNA production and RNA-directed DNA methylation. Here we describe evidence that Pol V contains subunits shared with Pol II,...
