Abstract

© 2017 The Author(s). Published with license by Taylor & Francis © 2017, © Pamela Gamba, Katherine James, and Nikolay Zenkin. Pausing by RNA polymerase is a major mechanism that regulates transcription elongation but can cause conflicts with fellow RNA polymerases and other cellular machineries. Here, we summarize our recent finding that misincorporation could be a major source of transcription pausing in vivo, and discuss the role of misincorporation-induced pausing.
