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. The following page contains interesting information on the relation of 1K83 with [RNA Polymerase]. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
