TFIIH is responsible for two separate functions: 

Its strand-separating helicases melt the DNA around a lesion during nucleotide excision repair (including transcription-coupled repair) and also help to open the DNA template during the process of gene transcription.

DNase footprinting gives a good idea of the location of the binding site for the protein, but DNase is a macromolecule and is therefore a rather blunt instrument for probing the fine details of the binding site.

In E. coli the typical mRNA half-life is about 3 minutes, but half-lives of individual mRNAs may be as short as 20 seconds or as long as 90 minutes.  In budding yeast, mRNA half-lives range from 3 to 100 minutes, whereas in metazoans, half-lives range from minutes to hours, and in rare cases, even days.
