-
Still, the directionality of transcription (see also Figure 3C) implies a tight control upon formation of the preinitiation complex and rules out the possibility that transcription is a mere consequence of random Pol_II collisions with accessible loci.

-
An unstable preinitiation complex in S. cerevisiae is further supported by the unusually large open complex between the TATA element and initiation site
-
In this regard, the observation that Pol II association at promoters is equivalent to that throughout the corresponding coding region suggest that, in yeast cells, preinitiation complexes in yeast are unstable and the transition to elongation is rapid

[29] and the related fact that initiation occurs downstream of where the preinitiation complex is formed (as defined by the TATA element which stererochemically fixes the location of TBP and other general factors).
-
4F: the 4A subunit and the central domain of the 4G subunit are sufficient to mediate internal entry of 43S preinitiation complexes.
