Abstract excerpt
Transcription initiation by RNA Pol II is driven by a preinitiation complex (PIC) comprising Pol II and general transcription factors (GTFs): TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, TFIIF, and TFIIH. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, transcription start site (TSS) selection proceeds by a promoter scanning mechanism where the PIC scans downstream for TSSs. To determine which factors participate in TSS selection by promoter...
