2018, Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Gene Regulatory MechanismsCitation Excerpt :Compared to pol II, pol III transcription seems to be more efficient because of its comparatively quicker reinitiation process. The highly stable TFIIIB-DNA complex at the upstream site is capable of directing multiple rounds of transcription in the absence of TFIIIC on naked DNA templates [108,109,150]. Pol III preferentially recycles on the same template, such that re-initiation can occur without the release of pol III, a process facilitated by the transcription terminator [151–153].
