Sequence architecture of the bacterial RNAP large subunits.

The vertical bars represent the primary sequence of the bacterial RNAP β (top, light cyan) and β' (bottom, light pink) subunits.The white boxes indicate sequence regions common to all bacterial RNAPs, as defined by Lane et al. [3]. Important structural features are labeled above the bars [19]. Lineage-specific insertions (labeled according to the nomenclature of Lane et al. [3] are shown below the bars. The color-coding for the large subunits and the lineage-specific insertions shown here is used throughout this article.
