| Primary Identifier | IPR045113 | Type | Family |
| Short Name | Rpb7-like |
| description | The eukaryotic RNA polymerase subunits RPB4 and RPB7 form a heterodimer that reversibly associates with the RNA polymerase II core, being involved in initiation complex formation []. Archaeal cells contain a single RNAP made up of about 12 subunits, displaying considerable homology to the eukaryotic RNAPII subunits. The RPB4 and RPB7 homologues are called subunits F and E, respectively, and have been shown to form a stable heterodimer. While the RPB7 homologue is reasonably well conserved, the similarity between the eukaryotic RPB4 and the archaeal F subunit is barely detectable [].This entry includes RPB7 and its homologues. |
