Qβ replicase, Escherichia coli RNA polymerase, and T7 RNA polymerase are inhibited by low concentrations of the dye aurintricarboxylic acid (ATA). In each case initiation by the enzyme was preferentially inhibited. The elongation of initiated polynucleotide chains by Qβ replicase was insensitive to ATA in the range of concentrations required to inhibit initiation. Treatment of Qβ replicase, RNA polymerase and lac repressor with ATA prevented enzymemediated binding of the templates to nitrocellulose filters. We propose that the inhibitor combines with the template binding site of these proteins to prevent initiation.
