Abstract excerpt
Assembly and activity of yeast RNA polymerase II (Pol II) preinitiation complexes (PIC) was investigated with an immobilized promoter assay and extracts made from wild-type cells and from cells containing conditional mutations in components of the Pol II machinery. We describe the following findings: (1) In one step, TFIID and TFIIA assemble at the promoter independently of holoenzyme. In another step, holoenzyme...
