From: Evolution of lysine acetylation in the RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain

Figure 1

The human RNA polymerase II subunit 1 (RPB1) C-terminal domain (CTD) contains more heptad repeats than the yeasts, and eight of its non-consensus distal repeats have a lysine residue. In this schematic of the RPB1 CTD for two species of yeast and human, consensus heptad repeats (YSPTSPS) are colored dark gray; repeats with a lysine at position 7 are colored red; and all other non-consensus repeats are in white.
