Primary
Structure of RNA
Secondary Structure of RNA
In most prokaryotes (e.g. E. coli), the
transcript is the mRNA. Translation
begins even before synthesis of the
mRNA is completed.
Template binding
s recognizes a promoter sequence
Promoter a series of nucleotides located
in the 5 region upstream from the
point of initial transcription of a gene.
Prokaryotic Transcription and
Elongation
After core RNA
polymerase
binds to the
promoter with
the help of
sigma, the DNA
helix is locally
unwound
making the
template strand
accessible.
Prokaryotic Transcription Termination
Rho-independent Terminators: Rho-dependent Terminators:
Eukaryotic Transcription
Bacterial Promoters:
NOT a TATA box
Pol II Promoters:
RNA Polymerase II Transcription
