Question

Which (if any) of the following is not true regardingpromoters for protein genes? A. they are regions of DNA that are transcribed by RNApolymerase B. in prokaryotes the RNA polymerase/sigma factor bindsthere C. in eukaryotes transcription factors must bind before thepolymerase will begin transcription D. changing the base sequence of the promoter region mayprevent the gene from being transcribed. E. all of the above are true Which (if any) of the following is not true regardingpromoters for protein genes?

Explanation / Answer

A is false. promoter doesn't get transcribed. it lies upstream ofwhat actually gets transcribed The rest are true
