... In budding yeast, Ser2 and DSIF phosphorylation requires two kinases, Bur1 and Ctk1. Bur1 phosphorylates both DSIF and Ser2, but Ctk1 is responsible for the majority of Ser2 phosphorylation (Ser2-P) (Qiu et al., 2009). In metazoans, the P-TEFb complex, which is composed of Cdk9 and cyclin T, has bee ...
