Abstract excerpt
Schizosaccharomyces pombe RNA polymerase II comprises twelve different subunits. Its Rpb9 subunit comprises 113 amino acids, and is the only non-essential subunit of S. pombe RNA polymerase II. However, its functions have not been studied in S. pombe. The results presented in this study demonstrate that Rpb9 is involved in regulating growth under optimum and certain stress conditions in S. pombe. To further...
