Notizen:
The control of mRNA synthesis in the unicellular eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae involves a number of promoter elements, including an upstream activation site (UAS), an RNA initiation element (RIE) and, for some genes, a form of negative element. The UAS is involved in the activation and regulation of transcription, whilst the RIE, which comprises a transcription initiation site (or I site), and often a TATA box, is responsible for the accurate positioning of the 5′ end of the mRNA. The mechanism whereby these promoter elements interact involves specific protein-DNA binding events and possibly alterations in chromatin structure.
