The assembly of activated RNA polymerase II (pol II) transcription complexes has been investigated by assaying whether pre-assembly of intermediate complexes reduces the extended time required for start-site melting. The results show that a closed complex requiring factors IIA, IID, and the acidic activator GAL4-AH forms in a rate-limiting step. This directs the templates into a productive assembly pathway. Factor TFIIB is then added rapidly, affording further protection against diversion into nonproductive pathways. These events are followed by a series of rapid steps in which the remaining general factors are assembled onto the template, which is then melted using the energy of ATP hydrolysis.
