Enhancer RNAs stimulate Pol II pause release by harnessing multivalent interactions to NELF

Enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) can stimulate gene transcription through various mechanisms. Here, the authors identify the molecular features within eRNAs that are critical for their action in facilitating RNA Polymerase II release from the paused state.
