Abstract
Bacterial transcription mediated by RNA polymerase (RNAP) is a highly regulated process, and RNAP action is modulated during the different phases, initiation, elongation, and termination by proteins such as the Escherichia coli Nus transcription-factors. Here we discuss the structural interplay and the mechanistic role of the Nus-factors that are directly involved in processive elongation, transcription:translation coupling and termination as well as the varying effects of these proteins on transcription under the influence of additional signals.
