In eukaryotic cells, transcription cannot begin until ________.
A) the two DNA strands have completely separated and exposed the promoter
B) several transcription factors have bound to the promoter
C) the 5' caps are removed from the mRNA
D) the DNA introns are removed from the template

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transcription in eukaryotic cells requires the binding of several transcription factors to the promoter region of a gene before RNA polymerase can initiate the process of transcription. These factors help to position the RNA polymerase correctly at the start site of transcription and aid in the unwinding of DNA.
