Great work from the Mazumder lab, pointing out a new role for universal transcription factor NusG. Nice FCS and single-mol work as well! Single-molecule experiments reveal NusG displaces transcription initiation factor σ70 from mature elongation complexes url: academic.oup.com/nar/article/...
Abstract. The Escherichia coli transcription initiation factor σ70 was long believed to dissociate from RNA polymerase after promoter escape, following syn
