| Comments |
"By quantifying these fractions, Bakshi
et al. (primary source) obtain a global picture of
the activities of RNAPs in the cell.
Only approximately one-half of the
RNAPs are found engaged in active transcription, but a large fraction is
bound to DNA, either specifically or
nonspecifically (82%)." |
