Catalyses DNA-template-directed extension of the 3'- end of an RNA strand by one nucleotide at a time. Can initiate a chain de novo. In eukaryotes, three forms of the enzyme have been distinguished on the basis of sensitivity to alpha-amanitin, and the type of RNA synthesized. See also EC 2.7.7.19 (polynucleotide adenylyltransferase) and EC 2.7.7.48 (RNA-directed RNA polymerase).

a single cisplatin 1,2-d(CG) intrastrand cross-link or a single cisplatin 1,3-d(GTG) intrastrand cross-link is a strong block to the enzyme. The efficiency of the block at a cisplatin 1,2-d(GG) intrastrand cross-link is similar in several different nucleotide sequence contexts. Some blockage is also observed when the single cisplatin 1,3-d(GTG) intrastrand cross-link is located in the non-transcribed strand. Cisplatin-induced lesions in the transcribed DNA strand constitute a strong physical barrier to RNA polymerase progression
a DNA helicase of the RECQ family, directly inhibits RNA polymerase II. It RECQL5 inhibits both initiation and elongation in transcription assays reconstituted with highly purified general transcription factors and RNAPII, RECQL5 helicase activity is not required for inhibition
several posttranslational modifications of the large subunit of RNA polymerase II, Rpb1, including hydroxylation of Pro1465, nondegradative ubiquitylation of RNA Pol II, and phosphorylation of Ser5. Induction of Rpb1 hydroxylation, phosphorylation, and ubiquitylation requires the presence of the von Hippel-Lindau protein, overview
