While Mediator plays a key role in eukaryotic transcription, little is known about its mechanism of action. This study combines CRISPR-Cas9 genetic screens, degron assays, Hi-C, and cryo-EM to dissect the function and structure of mammalian Mediator (mMED). Deletion analyses in B, T and ES cells identified a core of essential subunits required for PolII recruitment genome-wide. Conversely, loss of non-essential subunits mostly affects promoters linked to multiple enhancers. Contrary to current models however, mMED and PolII are dispensable to physically tether regulatory DNA, a topological activity requiring architectural proteins. Cryo-EM analysis revealed a conserved core, with non-essential subunits increasing structural complexity of the Tail module, a primary transcription factor target. Changes in Tail structure markedly increase PolII and kinase module interactions. We propose that Mediator’s structural pliability enables it to integrate and transmit regulatory signals and act as a functional, rather than an architectural bridge, between promoters and enhancers. Mediator promotes and controls interactions between enhancers and promoters, but is not itself necessary to tether these elements.
