Question
Before it can bind to the promoter, a eukaryotic RNA polymerase II has to be recruited by Blank______.Multiple choice question.the sigma factorthe initiation complexseveral transcription factors
Solution
The correct answer is "several transcription factors". In eukaryotes, RNA polymerase II is recruited to the promoter region of a gene by several transcription factors. These factors bind to specific sequences in the promoter region and help to position the RNA polymerase correctly. This is different from prokaryotes, where a single factor (the sigma factor) is responsible for guiding the RNA polymerase to the promoter.
