Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B TATA box
TATA box
The TATA box is a part of the promoter region of the transcription unit and has the consensus sequence 5’TATAAT3’. It is located 25 base pairs upstream of the initiation codon.
The binding of the RNA polymerase holoenzyme to the TATA box of the template DNA strand causes the DNA strand to assume a saddle-like appearance.
Final answer
(B) TATA box
