title: Going nuclear: transcribers in transit.
abstract: Recent experiments have identified novel RNA polymerase-associated proteins with roles in assembly and nuclear transport of multisubunit eukaryotic RNA polymerases. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Czeko et al. (2011) characterize a novel Pol II transport factor that is conserved from yeast to humans.
