FIGURE 1
Evolution of RNA polymerases. Structure of RNA polymerase from bacteria (A), archaea (B) and eukaryotic RNA pol II (C). Color code corresponds to the previously used for Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA pol II subunits (Armache et al., 2003). Similar colors are used for homologous subunits in bacterial and archaeal RNA pols.
