A unique structure at the carboxyl terminus of the largest subunit of eukaryotic RNA polymerase II.
Open accessAbstract
Purified eukaryotic nuclear RNA polymerase II consists of three subspecies that differ in the apparent molecular masses of their largest subunit, designated IIo, IIa, and IIb for polymerase species IIO, IIA, and IIB, respectively. Subunits IIo, IIa, and IIb are the products of a single gene. We present here the amino acid composition of calf thymus subunits IIa and IIb and the C-terminal amino acid sequence of subunit IIa (IIo) inferred from the nucleotide sequence of part of the mouse gene encoding this RNA polymerase subunit. The calculated amino acid composition of the peptide unique to subunit IIa indicates that subunit IIa contains a domain rich in serine, proline, threonine, and tyrosine. The sequence at the 3' end of the mouse RNA polymerase II largest subunit gene reveals that the C-terminal domain consists of 52 repeats of a seven amino acid block with the consensus sequence Tyr-Ser-Pro-Thr-Ser-Pro-Ser. This sequence is also unusual in that it contains a high percentage of potential phosphorylation sites.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
