The transcription bubble of the RNA polymerase-promoter open complex exhibits conformational heterogeneity and millisecond-scale dynamics: Implications for transcription start-site selection
Bacterial transcription is initiated after RNA polymerase (RNAP) binds to promoter DNA, melts ~ 14 bp around the transcription start site and forms a single-stranded "transcription bubble" within a catalytically active RNAP-DNA open complex (RPo). There is significant flexibility in the tr...
