Biochemical assays to probe the network of protein-DNA interactions	mouse B2 RNA and human Alu RNA	N/A	interaction	We conclude that B2 and Alu RNA prevent Pol II from properly engaging the DNA during closed complex formation, resulting in complexes with an altered conformation that are transcriptionally inert. In the absence of its normal contacts with the promoter, Pol II is likely held in these inactive complexes on DNA through interactions with promoter-bound TATA box-binding protein and transcription factor IIB.	19307572
