Resumen

La expresión génica de los mamíferos es más compleja de lo que se pensaba. Los investigadores mapearon los sitios de inicio de la transcripción para revelar la actividad génica específica del tipo de célula, encontrando pocos.

The Eukaryotic Promoter Region

The eukaryotic promoter region is a segment of DNA located upstream of a gene. It contains an RNA polymerase binding site, a transcription start site, and several cis-regulatory sequences.  The proximal promoter region is located in the vicinity of the gene and has cis-regulatory sequences and the core promoter. The core promoter is the binding site for RNA polymerase and is usually located between -35 and +35 nucleotides from the transcription start site. The distal promoter regions are...
