A single mutation attenuates both the transcription termination and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity of T7 RNA polymerase

Hui Wu et al.

Summary: The mutation S43Y in T7 RNAP significantly decreases termination efficiency and almost eliminates RNA-dependent activity, while maintaining DNA-dependent activity. The S43Y mutation increases transcription efficiency and weakens RNA binding, resulting in RNA with higher terminal homogeneity in run-off RNA synthesis.
