From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For my chosen article RNA polymerase II

I am going to add a history/discovery section: One that talks about the discovery of the enzyme RNA Polymerase II. In this same section I will quickly summarize the other two RNA Polymerases (I,III) and possibly how to distinguish between them experimentally. This addition, not sure in the same section, I will emphasyze that the three different polymerases play different roles in transcription. (All the enzymes will be linked to their corresponding wiki page).

In the introduction: I am going to add the specific promoter the enzyme binds to (Class II Promoter), and a brief description of what that is. Also in the introduction I am going to mention the role it plays with other proteins to form the "pre-initiation complex" and what this is in terms of transcription.
