Abstract

DNA-dependent RNA polymerases of archaebacteria not only resemble the nuclear RNA polymerases of eukaryotes rather than the eubacterial enzymes in their complex component patterns but also show striking immunochemical, i.e., structural, homology with the eukaryotic polymerases at the level of single components. Thus, eukaryotic and archaebacterial RNA polymerases are indeed of the same type, distinct from the eubacterial enzymes, which, however, are also derived from a common ancestral structure.
