Genome-wide RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) density profiles provide averaged snapshots of transcription but are difficult to interpret in the context of dynamic gene expression. We performed computational modeling to simulate RNAPII density profiles from individual transcription parameters and constructed simple mathematical models to explore general relationships between transcription parameters and density profiles.
