Eukaryotic promoter regulatory sequences typically bind proteins called transcription factors which are involved in the formation of the transcriptional complex.

These data are analyzed to determine genes that code for proteins, as well as regulatory sequences.

For example, natural variations within regulatory sequences appear to underlie many of the heritable characteristics seen in organisms.

We don't include the promoters, which are called the genetic regulatory sequences of the virus, which are at the far right-hand end and left-hand end of the genetic sequence, which are really important. The virus needs them to replicate.

In addition to the differences in the proteins these genes encode, differences between chimps and humans also involve changes in regulatory sequences — promoters and enhancers — of their structural genes.

Enhancer
A cis-acting regulatory sequence that can increase transcription from an adjacent promoter.
