摘要
Transcription elongation factor NusG/Spt5 spans the central cleft of RNA polymerase and functionally competes with transcription initiation factors. This work highlights the RNA polymerase clamp as a target for regulation and points to dynamic interactions between initiation and elongation machineries.
