Three major classes of RNA:
Transcription in Eukaryotes
Type Encodes Copies/genome % Total RNA
mRNA proteins Single or few 10%
tRNA functional RNA Few 20%
rRNA functional RNA Many 70%
But there are more!!!

Epitope Tagging of RNA Polymerase II
*Genetically “tag” Polymerase II subunit
*Grow cells in radioactively labeled amino acids
*Allow assembly of active polymerase
*Add antibody that binds epitope
*”Grab” antibody and what ever it is bound to
*SDS electrophoresis
