A unique nucleosome arrangement, maintained actively by chromatin remodelers facilitates transcription of yeast tRNA genes Yatendra Kumar and Purnima Bhargava*

Abstract Background: RNA polymerase (pol) III transcribes a unique class of genes with intra-genic promoters and high transcriptional activity. The major contributors to the pol III transcriptome, tRNAs genes are found scattered on all chromosomes of yeast. A prototype tDNA of
