Summary
POLR2K (RNA polymerase II, I and III subunit K, HGNC:9198) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 8q22.2, encoding DNA-directed RNA polymerases I, II, and III subunit RPABC4 (P53803). DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 99.8% of cancer cell lines).
This gene encodes one of the smallest subunits of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. This subunit is shared by the other two DNA-directed RNA polymerases.

Function. DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Common component of RNA polymerases I, II and III which synthesize ribosomal RNA precursors, mRNA precursors and many functional non-coding RNAs, and a small RNAs, such as 5S rRNA and tRNAs, respectively.
Subunit / interactions. Component of the RNA polymerase I (Pol I), RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and RNA polymerase III (Pol III) complexes consisting of at least 13, 12 and 17 subunits, respectively. Pol I complex consists of a ten-subunit catalytic core composed of POLR1A/RPA1, POLR1B/RPA2, POLR1C/RPAC1, POLR1D/RPAC2, POLR1H/RPA12, POLR2E/RPABC1, POLR2F/RPABC2, POLR2H/RPABC3, POLR2K/RPABC4 and POLR2L/RPABC5; a mobile stalk subunit POLR1F/RPA43 protruding from the core and additional subunits homologous to general transcription factors POLR1E/RPA49 and POLR1G/RPA34. Part of Pol I pre-initiation complex (PIC), in which Pol I core assembles with RRN3 and promoter-bound UTBF and SL1/TIF-IB complex. Pol II complex contains a ten-subunit catalytic core composed of POLR2A/RPB1, POLR2B/RPB2, POLR2C/RPB3, POLR2I/RPB9, POLR2J/RPB11, POLR2E/RPABC1, POLR2F/RPABC2, POLR2H/RPABC3, POLR2K/RPABC4 and POLR2L/RPABC5 and a mobile stalk composed of two subunits POLR2D/RPB4 and POLR2G/RPB7. Part of Pol II(G) complex, in which Pol II core associates with an additional subunit POLR2M; unlike conventional Pol II, Pol II(G) functions as a transcriptional repressor. Part of TBP-based Pol II pre-initiation complex (PIC), in which Pol II core assembles with general transcription factors and other specific initiation factors including GTF2E1, GTF2E2, GTF2F1, GTF2F2, TCEA1, ERCC2, ERCC3, GTF2H2, GTF2H3, GTF2H4, GTF2H5, GTF2A1, GTF2A2, GTF2B and TBP; this large multi-subunit PIC complex mediates DNA unwinding and targets Pol II core to the transcription start site where the first phosphodiester bond forms. Pol III complex consists of a ten-subunit catalytic core composed of POLR3A/RPC1, POLR3B/RPC2, POLR1C/RPAC1, POLR1D/RPAC2, POLR3K/RPC10, POLR2E/RPABC1, POLR2F/RPABC2, POLR2H/RPABC3, POLR2K/RPABC4 and POLR2L/RPABC5; a mobile stalk composed of two subunits POLR3H/RPC8 and CRCP/RPC9, protruding from the core and functioning primarily in transcription initiation; and additional subunits homologous to general transcription factors of the RNA polymerase II machinery, POLR3C/RPC3-POLR3F/RPC6-POLR3G/RPC7 heterotrimer required for transcription initiation and POLR3D/RPC4-POLR3E/RPC5 heterodimer involved in both transcription initiation and termination.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 77 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
