Both a single-molecule magnetic tweezers assay and a single-molecule FRET experiment have shown that abortive initiation occurs via a "scrunching" mechanism, wherein the polymerase remains stationary and reels the downstream DNA into the active site.
In in vitro transcription experiments, TFIIF stimulation of abortive initiation was compromised by the Pol II LOF H1085Y allele of the TL (Cabart et al. 2014).
In summary, although the molecular events in a neuron converting a stress stimulus into a signal to enter an abortive cell cycle remain unknown, results from experiments using PS1 FAD models point to the accidental triggering of oncogenic pathways (i.e. aberrant expression of cyclin D1 and EGFR).

We censored pregnancies ending with an abortive outcome other than spontaneous abortion.
This is evidence that at this concentration of ADP in the pre-incubation mixture, all enzyme is trapped in the abortive E·KanA·ADP complex, compared to half in the previous experiment.
