A TFIIB paralog drives cyclic transcription to orchestrate the archaeal cell cycle

Yin–Wei Kuo, Fabian Blombach, Frank Schult…·Buzz Baum

This study identifies TFB2, a TFIIB paralog, as a key regulator of cyclic transcription in Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, linking it to cell cycle progression without CDKs.
