The paper investigates the functional divergence of TBP homologs across species by analyzing their ability to complement TBP inactivation in yeast and identifies the role of the N-terminal domain in species-specific activity.

This study investigates the functional divergence of TBP homologs by examining their DNA binding dynamics and transcriptional support in different species and tissues.

The paper examines how RNA Polymerase III transcription changes in mouse embryonic stem cells during heat shock, showing initial downregulation followed by upregulation, with HSF1 involvement in the latter.

The paper shows that TBP is not essential for Pol II transcription in mESCs, revealing a TBP-independent mechanism for transcription initiation.
