TATA boxA
conserved sequence 25 to 30
base pairs
upstream from the
site for
transcription in many but not all genes;
binding site for general factors involved in initiation of
transcription. In
prokaryotes the analogous is called
Pribnow box.

gene regulation.
Histones can undergo posttranslational
modifications. These
modifications can play a role in
gene regulation in an
epigenetic manner. Regulation occurs at the
TATA box.
