Question

Transcribed Image Text:Which of the following is a property or characteristic of eukaryotic promoters?
They contain the -10 and-35 consensus sequences where RNA polymerase holoenzyme, containing the sigma factor, bind to initiate transcription.
| They contain the -10 and -35 consensus sequences that are the site where general transcription factors bind to help RNA polymerase holoenzyme initiate transcription.
They contain a TATA box to which sigma factors bind to help RNA polymerase core enzyme initiate transcription.
O I.
They are usually located far away from the gene that is being transcribed.
IV.
OV.
A, They are bound by general transcription factors, which help RNA polymerase I, II, or III, bind to the promoter and initiate transcription.

The Sigma-54 promoter, on the other hand, hasn't had quite as much study devoted to it, but a consensus sequence for Sigma-54 promoters has been determined, and it looks like this: C GAAA FICGCACTECT УА C 5-26-25-24 -23 -22 -21 -20 -19 -18 -17 -16-15-14-13-12-11 -10 3 wablogo berkalay.edu (From Franke et.

- A bacterial species has a hypothetical sigma promoter that has the following sequence: TTGGCA - 18 bases - TATAAT What change in the level of transcription would there be if the sequence was mutated to: TTCGCA -18 bases -TATAAT O The mutation would bind the promoter to the consensus and produce normal levels of transcription O The mutation would inhibit the promoter thereby inhibiting transcription The mutation would move the promoter away from consensus and reduce the level of transcription O No change the consensus TATAAT sequence in the same.
