Abstract
rpc160-112, a mutant of the RNA polymerase III active site, is corrected in vivo by six second-site mutants obtained by random mutagenesis. These mutants introduce single-site amino acid replacements at the two large subunits of the enzyme. The mutated motifs are conserved in RNA polymerases I and II and, for some of them, in the bacterial enzyme, thus delineating key elements of the active site in eukaryotic RNA polymerases.Mesh:
