Formation of an RNA polymerase II preinitiation complex on an RNA promoter derived from the hepatitis <i>delta</i> virus RNA genome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Although RNA polymerases (RNAPs) are able to use RNA as template, it is unknown how they recognize RNA promoters. In this study, we used an RNA fragment derived from the hepatitis delta virus (HDV) genome as a model to investigate the recognition of RNA promoters by RNAP II. Inhibition of the transcription reaction using an antibody specific to the largest subunit of RNAP II and the direct binding of purified RNAP II to the RNA promoter confirmed the involvement of RNAP II in the reaction. RNA affinity chromatography established that an active RNAP II preinitiation complex forms on the RNA promoter and indicated that this complex contains the core RNAP II subunit and the general transcription factors TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, TFIIF, TFIIH and TFIIS. Binding assays demonstrated the direct binding of the TATA-binding protein and suggested that this protein is required to nucleate the RNAP II complex on the RNA promoter. Our findings provide a better understanding of the events leading to RNA promoter recognition by RNAP II.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
