Our structural and biochemical studies show that S. cerevisiae RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) homodimerizes through the stalk domain (formed by the Rpb4-Rpb7 subunits). To explore the biological impact of disrupting this interaction we introduced a triple point mutation at the RNAPII dimerization interf...
