Deskripsi

RNA polymerase III (Pol III) employs termination-associated reinitiation-recycling to express high amounts of tRNAs, which involves the essential C11 subunit. Here the authors determine the functions of various C11 domains, finding that the N-terminal domain (NTD) stimulates termination, reinitiation-recycling requires an NTD-linker, and the C-terminal domain stimulates RNA 3′-cleavage.
