Crystal Structure of Yeast RNA Polymerase II Complexed with the Inhibitor Alpha Amanitin
Overview
The structure of RNA polymerase II in a complex with the inhibitor, alpha-amanitin has been determined by x-ray crystallography. The structure, of the complex indicates the likely basis of inhibition and gives, unexpected insight into the transcription mechanism.
About this Structure
1K83 is a Protein complex structure of sequences from Amanita phalloides and Saccharomyces cerevisiae with ZN and MN as ligands. The following page contains interesting information on the relation of 1K83 with [RNA Polymerase]. Active as DNA-directed RNA polymerase, with EC number 2.7.7.6 Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
