Transcription of DNA is a fundamental process in all cellular organisms. The enzyme responsible for transcription, RNA polymerase (RNAP), is conserved in general architecture and catalytic function across the three domains of life. Diverse mechanisms are used between and within the different branches to regulate transcription initiation. Mechanistic studies of transcription initiation in prokaryotes are especially amenable because the promoter recognition and melting steps are much less complicated than in eukaryotes or archaea. Also, bacteria play critical roles in human health as pathogens and commensals, and the bacterial RNAP is a proven target for antibiotics. Recent biophysical studies of RNAPs and their inhibition, as well as transcription initiation and transcription factors, have illuminated the mechanisms of transcription initiation in phylogenetically diverse bacteria, inspiring this review to examine unifying and diverse themes in this process.
