Clustering of RNA Polymerase II C-Terminal Domain Models upon Phosphorylation.

RNA polymerase II (Pol II) C-terminal domain (CTD) is known to have crucial roles in regulating transcription. CTD has also been highly recognized for undergoing phase separation, which is further associated with its regulatory functions. However, the molecular interactions that the CTD forms to induce clustering to drive phase separations and how the phosphorylation of the CTD affects clustering are not entirely known.
