BIOL 200 Lecture Notes - Rna Editing, Base Pair, Polyadenylation

RNA processing is determined by phosphorylation patterns in the C-terminal repeat domain (CTD) of the RNA polymerase II. Explain in a mechanistic manner how a deficiency in the enzyme CTDK-1 affects RNA processing.

What kinase phosphorylates serine 2 of the repeat sequence in the C-terminal domain of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II?

Select one:

a. cycT

b. cdk2

c. cdk7

d. cdk9

e. cycH

What steps in the eukaryotic transcription cycle are stimulated by phosphorylation of the carboxyl terminal (CTD) of the large subunit of RNA polymerase II and beyond?

Check all that apply.
