FAMILY

eukaryotic RPC34/RPC39 RNA polymerase subunit family

DESCRIPTION

Also known as RPC6_YEAST, RPC34. DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Specific peripheric component of RNA polymerase III which synthesizes small RNAs, such as 5S rRNA and tRNAs. Involved in recruitment of Pol III to the preinitiation complex. Involved in the configuration of an initiation-competent form of RNA polymerase. Component of the RNA polymerase III (Pol III) complex consisting of 17 subunits. Interacts with BRF1/TDS4.
