It forms the polymerase active center together with RPB2, the second largest subunit. Polymerase II (Pol II) is the central component of the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. It is composed of mobile elements that move relatively to each other. RPB1 is part of the core element with the central large cleft, the clamp element that moves to open and close the cleft, and the jaws that are thought to grab the incoming DNA template. At the start of transcription, a single DNA template strand of the promoter is positioned within the central active site cleft of Pol II. Then, a bridging helix emanates from RPB1 and crosses the cleft near the catalytic site, which acts as a ratchet that moves the RNA-DNA hybrid through the active site by switching from straight to bent conformations during each neuocleotide addition. This promotes translocation of Pol II. Pol II moves on the template during transcription elongation. Elongation is influenced by the phosphorylation status of the C-terminal domain (CTD) of Pol II's largest subunit (RPB1), which serves as a platform for assembling factors that regulate transcription initiation, elongation, termination, and mRNA processing. It can act as a RNA-dependent RNA polymerase when associated with small delta antigen of Hepatitis delta virus, being able to conform as both a replicate and transcriptase for the viral RNA circular genome.\u003cbr\u003e\n100μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nReported Reactivity: Other species\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: The immunogen used was a peptide containing 10 repeats of the synthetic peptide YSPTSPS using chemically synthesized phospho-ser5.\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with Alexa Fluor® 488 under optimal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/ml\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light.
