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 ...

Complete genome sequence analyses of phytoplasmas revealed the presence of two types of sigma factors, RpoD and FliA (Oshima et al., 2004; Bai et al., 2006; Kube et ...

Sequence Elements That are Absent From The Human Insulin Promoter CCAAT Box. Several of the descriptions of the effects of transcription factors on insulin expression are based on results from ...

SiRNA designed to target the human VEGF gene promoter revealed a putative candidate for transcriptional gene silencing. However, mutation or deletion of the target site demonstrated that the observed ...
