摘要: Initiation of mRNA synthesis by RNA polymerase II occurs a multistep pathway that involves the along with several auxiliary factors. Here I describe an analysis kinetics and mechanism action Drosophila using detergent Sarkosyl to inhibit different steps in leading transcription initiation. The template DNA factors assemble into partially Sarkosyl-resistant initiation complex kinetically first order time course characterized t1/2 about 3 min, subsequent conversion elongating rapidly (less than 5 s). During formation two phosphodiester bonds, there is stepwise transition from 0.25% polymerase. In contrast mammalian systems, extracts possess ability carry out many rounds (approximately 10) vitro. Finally, are committed as complex, but then no longer appear remain after transcription. This finding suggests complete assembly disassembly during each round II.
