TATA box


TATA box
A 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.

TATA box. An adenine- and thymine-rich promoter sequence located 25-30 bp upstream of a gene, which is the binding site of RNA polymerase.

Many eukaryotic promoters, but by no means all, contain a TATA box (sequence TATAAA), which in turn binds a TATA binding protein which assists in the formation of the RNA polymerase transcriptional complex.

an enhancer, a TATA box) and thereby, directly or indirectly, affects the initiation of transcription. Eukaryotic proteins that aid RNA polymerase to recognize promoters. Analogous to prokaryotic sigma factors.

Histones act in 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.
