Rpb9 plays an important role in maintaining transcriptional fidelity, whereas TFIIS may serve a different primary purpose
Title: RNA polymerase II subunit Rpb9 is important for transcriptional fidelity in vivo.
Rad26-mediated repair can be either transcription-coupled or transcription-independent; Rpb9-mediated repair is strictly transcription-coupled and is efficient only when the transcription level is high

In response to ultraviolet radiation, Rpb9 also functions in promoting ubiquitylation and degradation of Rpb1, the largest subunit of Pol II.
Title: Yeast Rpb9 plays an important role in ubiquitylation and degradation of Rpb1 in response to UV-induced DNA damage.
both S-II and Rpb9 maintain transcriptional fidelity by stimulating the cleavage activity intrinsic to RNA polymerase II
