Transcription termination occurs when the polymerase is released after a transcription event,
thus delimitating transcription units; however, the functional importance of termination …

Transcription initiates pervasively in all organisms, which challenges the notion that the
information to be expressed is selected mainly based on mechanisms defining where and …

The RNA polymerase II transcription cycle is often divided into three major stages: initiation,
elongation, and termination. Research over the last decade has blurred these divisions and …

Gene expression is modulated by regulatory elements that influence transcription elongation
by RNA polymerase: terminators that disrupt the elongation complex and release RNA, and …

Widely transcribed compact genomes must cope with the major challenge of frequent
overlapping or concurrent transcription events. Efficient and timely transcription termination …

Gene expression is controlled in a dynamic and regulated manner to allow for the consistent
and steady expression of some proteins as well as the rapidly changing production of other …

Discoveries within the last few years have revealed that the multiple steps in gene
expression are remarkably integrated. There have recently been several advances in …

RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcribes hundreds of thousands of transcription units–a
reaction always brought to a close by its termination. Because Pol II transcribes multiple …

The cycle of eukaryotic transcription, from initiation to elongation and termination is
regulated at multiple steps. Coordinated action of regulatory factors keeps in check the …

The pervasiveness of RNA synthesis in eukaryotes is largely the result of RNA polymerase II
(Pol II)-mediated transcription, and termination of its activity is necessary to partition the …
