摘要
Single-molecule techniques now permit the tracking of a transcription complex along a DNA template in real time and to 1 bp resolution. As reported in this issue of Cell, Herbert et al. (2006) exploit this approach to study a central component of transcription regulation, the sequence-dependent pausing of RNA polymerase during transcript elongation.
