Breaking the mold: structures of the RNA polymerase I transcription complex reveal a new path for initiation

While structures of the RNA polymerase (Pol) II initiation complex have been resolved and extensively studied, the Pol I initiation complex remained elusive. Here, we review the recent structural analyses of the yeast Pol I transcription initiation complex that reveal several unique and unexpected P...
