Authors Wang H, Dienemann C, Stutzer A, Urlaub H, Cheung ACM, Cramer P Journal Nature Citation Nature. 2020 Jan;577(7792):717-720. Abstract Gene transcription by RNA polymerase II is regulated by activator proteins that recruit the coactivator complexes SAGA (Spt-Ada-Gcn5-acetyltransferase)(1,2) and transcription factor IID (TFIID)(2-4). SAGA is required for all regulated transcription(5)

Abstract Poxviruses use virus-encoded multisubunit RNA polymerases (vRNAPs) and RNA-processing factors to generate m(7)G-capped mRNAs in the host cytoplasm. In the accompanying paper, we report structures
