An antibody directed against hRPC155 immunoprecipitates an RNA polymerase III active in a nonspecific transcription assay. Immunoprecipitations were performed as detailed in Methods with preimmune or anti-hRPC155 (antibody α-CSH499, rabbit CS-377) antibodies and P11 fraction. Antibody-bound material was eluted with specific or nonspecific peptide and tested in a nonspecific transcription assay as described in Methods, in the absence or presence of 2 or 300 μg/ml of α-amanitin. The data are represented as total amounts of cpm retained on DE81 cellulose filters in the nonspecific transcription assay. Approximately 30% of the activity resistant to 2 μg/ml of α-amanitin was recoved in the specific immunoprecipitation.
