Where is the core promoter relative to the +1 site of a gene?
a) Elements of the core promoter are located within about 35 base pairs both upstream and
downstream of the +1 site
,b) The location of the core promoter is not related to the +1 site
c) It can be hundreds of base pairs upstream or downstream from the +1 site
d) The core promoter is centred at ~-30 relative to the +1 site
e) The core promoter is located several base pairs downstream of the +1 site
a) Elements of the core promoter are located within about 35 base pairs both upstream and
downstream of the +1 site

A subunit within the general transcription factor __________ binds the TATA box during transcriptional
activation.
,TFIID
Put the following steps in order:
_____ A preformed complex of TFIIF and RNA pol II bind
_____ The TBP subunit of TFIID binds the TATA box, bending DNA
_____ TFIIA and TFIIB bind
_____ TFIIE binds creating a docking site for TFIIH, which then binds
1. The TBP subunit of TFIID binds the TATA box, bending DNA
2. TFIIA and TFIIB bind
3. A preformed complex of TFIIF and RNA pol II bind
4. TFIIE binds creating a docking site for TFIIH, which then binds
RNA pol II and the general transcription factor __________ bind the promoter as a pre-formed complex
TFIIF
