Promoter sequences
Prokaryotic promoters
In prokaryotes, the promoter consists of two short sequences at -10 and -35 position upstream of the gene, that is, prior to the gene in the direction of transcription.

Promoters and Sigma Factors
The nucleotide sequence of promoters is similar but not identical. The more similar the sequence is to a consensus sequence, the more likely that RNA polymerase will attach and produce mRNA from the associated genes.

Promoter. A region of DNA extending 150-300 bp upstream from the transcription start site that contains binding sites for RNA polymerase and a number of proteins that regulate the rate of transcription of the adjacent gene. (See Constitutive promoter.

An additional promoter stimulates transcription in the opposite direction. It is much stronger than the transposase mRNA promoter. The 5' ends of the transcripts overlap. The outward, antisense, transcript is more stable than the transposase mRNA.

Because the transcription starts from a specific base-pair sequence (a promoter) and stops at another (a terminator), our DNA strand needs to be correctly placed between the two. If not, it is considered as junk DNA, and is not expressed.
