RNA polymerase II of eukaryotes always requires more than one general transcription factor to initiate transcription.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

RNA polymerase II of eukaryotes requires a complex of general transcription factors, including TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, TFIIF, and TFIIH, for proper initiation of transcription. These factors assemble at the promoter region of genes to form a preinitiation complex, which recruits RNA polymerase II and initiates transcription.
