Cloning and identification of the gene coding for the 140-kd subunit of Drosophila RNA polymerase II

Genomic clones of Drosophila melanogaster were isolated from a λ library by cross-hybridization with the yeast gene coding for the 150-kd subunit of RNA polymerase II. Clones containing a region of ∼2.0 kb with strong homology to the yeast gene were shown to code for a 3.9-kb poly(A)(+)-RNA. Part of...
