The possibility to arrest transcription elongation by bis-PNA has been investigated. No arrest of transcription has been obtained in intact cells at variance with the data observed with purified RNA-polymerases. In keeping with these data a purified DNA-helicase (UL9) cannot be fully inhibited by such complexes.
