N1 - Funding Information: The project was supported by the Imperial Cancer Research Fund, the Human Frontier Science Project (RG-193/97), by an EC fellowship (BMH4-CT96-5021) to T. d. B., by a Bank of America-Giannini Foundation Medical Research Fellowship to Y. L., and by a NCI core grant (P30 CA08748). We are indebted to Lynne Lacomis, Mary Lui, and Anita Grewal for help with mass spectrometric analysis, to Matthias Mann (Odense University, Denmark) for the PeptideSearch program, and to Hans Ronne, Rick Young, Dick Burgess, and Roger Kornberg for reagents used in this study. Noel Lowndes, Grant Hartzog, and Brad Cairns are thanked for their help and advice on yeast genetics, and Peter Verrijzer, Rick Wood, Roger Kornberg, and members of the Svejstrup lab for comments on the manuscript.

N2 - The form of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) engaged in transcriptional elongation was isolated. Elongating RNAPII was associated with a novel multisubunit complex, termed elongator, whose stable interaction was dependent on a hyperphosphorylated state of the RNAPII carboxy-terminal domain (CTD). A free form of elongator was also isolated, demonstrating the discrete nature of the complex, and free elongator could bind directly to RNAPII. The gene encoding the largest subunit of elongator, ELP1, was cloned. Phenotypes of yeast elp1Δ, cells demonstrated an involvement of elongator in transcriptional elongation as well as activation in vivo. Our data indicate that the transition from transcriptional initiation to elongation involves an exchange of the multiprotein mediator complex for elongator in a reaction coupled to CTD hyperphosphorylation.
