Structural basis of nucleosome remodeling by archaeal RNA polymerase during transcription elongation
Transcription occurs in the context of histone-based chromatin in eukaryotes and most archaea. The archaeal RNA polymerase and histones are ancestral to their eukaryotic counterparts, yet how RNA polymerase traverses histone-bound DNA in archaea remains poorly understood. Here, we reconstitute a nucleosome-associated transcription elongation complex (TEC) from Pyrococcus furiosus and capture its…
