Summary of eukaryotic transcription • It is more complicated than prokaryotic transcription • 3 RNA polymerases of which Pol II produces mRNA • The organization of promoters & enhancers is more complicated • An impoatant element is TATA box at -25 • 6 general initiation factors are involved in forming the initiation complex
