The Mediator, found in the yeast S. cerevisiae, connects repressors and activators bound to regulatory DNA with RNA polymerase II because the mediator is an important regulator of eukaryotic transcription <ref>PMID: 21725323 </ref> (Pol II). Also, mediator is currently being studied because of its ability and role to regulate gene expression <ref>PMID: 21725323 </ref>. Mediator is in the form of three main modules, which are the tail, arm, and head.
