The thing to do back then was to fractionate your cellular parts or your mangled nuclei, so a lot of old papers discuss the a-amanitin sensitive or resistant properties of their nuclear fractions -- in order to determine which fraction contained which RNA polymerase. Check out Roeder & Rutter's work over the late 60s/early 70s and decide for yourself which protocols fall into the "nuclear run-on" category vs. the "biochemistry without an FPLC" category.
