Abstrakt: While structures of the RNA polymerase (Pol) II initiation complex have been resolved and extensively studied, the Pol I initiation complex remained elusive. Here, we review the recent structural analyses of the yeast Pol I transcription initiation complex that reveal several unique and unexpected Pol I-specific properties.
