Antibiotic Streptolydigin Requires Noncatalytic Mg(2+) for Binding to RNA Polymerase

Multisubunit RNA polymerase, an enzyme that accomplishes transcription in all living organisms, is a potent target for antibiotics. The antibiotic streptolydigin inhibits RNA polymerase by sequestering the active center in a catalytically inactive conformation. Here, we show that binding of streptol...
