Secondary Information

Protein Function POLR3A and POLR3B encode the largest and second largest subunits of RNA Polymerase III (Pol III), RPC1 and RPC2, respectively. RPC1 and RPC2 together form the active center of the polymerase and contribute to the catalytic activity of the polymerase. Pol III is involved in the transcription of small noncoding RNAs, such as 5S ribosomal RNA and all transfer RNAs (tRNA).

Additional Comments Overexpression of the S.cerevisiae largest subunit of RNA polymerase III C160 (Rpc1) allows S.pombe rpb8 to functionally replace ABC14.5 in S.cerevisiae, suggesting a specific genetic interaction between the S.cerevisiae ABC14.5 (Rpb8) and C160 subunits.
