The <scene name='82/824648/Clamp/2'>clamp</scene> swings to trap the DNA in the cleft. Further along, the <scene name='82/824648/Wall/1'>wall</scene> sends the DNA template through the cleft in approximately a 90° turn. Both the clamp and wall are parts of the Rpb2 subunit. Further along in the process, the <scene name='82/824648/Rudder/1'>rudder</scene> separates the newly synthesized RNA strand from the DNA template. The DNA reforms into a double helix as it leaves RNA pol II. | The <scene name='82/824648/Clamp/2'>clamp</scene> swings to trap the DNA in the cleft.
