Promoter sequences are DNA sequences that define where transcription of a gene by RNA polymerase begins. Promoter sequences are typically located directly upstream or at the 5' end of the ...

In addition, regulatory sites on prokaryotic DNA are typically located close to transcription promoter sites — and this plays an important part in gene expression. For an example of how this ...

During transcription, the DNA sequence of a gene is copied into a complementary RNA molecule called messenger RNA (mRNA). This process is carried out by the enzyme RNA polymerase, which binds to the ...
