RNA chain elongation by RNA polymerase II (pol II) is a complex and regulated process which is coordinated with capping, splicing, and polyadenylation of the primary transcript. Numerous elongation factors that enable pol II to transcribe faster and/or more efficiently have been purified. SII is one

After many years of reductionistic approaches to characterize molecular mechanisms involved in transcription, the number of factors recognized to take part in this process has increased remarkably and continues to grow. When considering posttranslational modifications in conjunction with the large n
## Abstract **Background:** During transcription elongation, RNA polymeraseΒ II is arrested on the template when incorrect ribonucleotides are incorporated into the nascent transcripts. Transcription factor SβII enhances the excision of these misβincorporated nucleotides by RNA polymeraseΒ II and sti
## Abstract This study represents a first review of contemporarily knowledge concerning involvement of transcription factors in control of different ovarian functions. After introduction of basic functions and classification of transcription factors, the available data concerning involvement of tra
