The nucleotide addition cycle of RNA polymerase is controlled by two molecular hinges in the Bridge Helix domain

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Cellular RNA polymerases (RNAPs) are complex molecular machines that combine catalysis with concerted conformational changes in the active center. Previous work showed that kinking of a hinge region near the C-terminus of the Bridge...
