What would you predict would happen to transcription initiation, elongation, and termination if you had a mutation in the region of DNA: following .-35 region The inverted repeat sequence immediately before a string of 6 As Answer by first describing why this region is important in wild-type cells and then what you would predict would happen if the region was mutated.

Explanation / Answer

-35 region is the upstream region of translational site to which RNA polymerase binds. It is actually a promoter site , if this site will get mutated then RNA polymerase can not bind to it and transcription will not start or if it start somehow then it will halt during elongation.
