Eukaryotic promoters contain binding sites for basic transcription factors and gene-specific activator proteins. The transcription factors interact at the TATA box, which lies close to the position of transcription initiation. Activators typically bind to distant sites that can lie kilobases away from the initiation site. The factor TFIID binds specifically to the TATA box to initiate an ordered pathway of...
