What is the functional difference between enhancers and promoter proximal elements?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
Enhancers are at considerable distances from the promoter and can be moved or inverted and still function. Promoter-proximal elements are close to the promoter and their position and orientation must be maintained.

What are enhancers in eukaryotes?
Sections of DNA which, when bound by particular proteins, increase transcription from a particular promoter. They can sometimes be many kilobases from the promoter in question.
In eukaryotes the interaction of enhancer and promoter elements is brought closer by?
DNA looping
What is the difference between primer and promotor in cell biology?
Primer used in DNA synthesis; Promoter used in RNA synthesis.
How can a chromosomal rearrangement cause an increase in the expression level of a gene?
The gene could be moved behind a stronger promoter, the gene could be duplicated, occasionally changes in the 3' and 5' UTRs can result in increased mRNA stability. Chromosomal rearrangement could also influence levels of enhancers and repressors.
What is the region of DNA where RNA synthesis begins called?
The region of DNA where RNA synthesis begins is the promoter. DNA contains a number of upstream regulatory and promoter sequences but the region of DNA where RNA synthesis begins is the start codon. This is the first codon that translates into an RNA nucleotide.
What are enhancers in eukaryotes?
Sections of DNA which, when bound by particular proteins, increase transcription from a particular promoter. They can sometimes be many kilobases from the promoter in question.
Does eukaryotic transcription begin before the promoter clearance?
No, Eukayotic transcription begins after promoter clearance. Promoter clearance just prepares the transcription initiation complex to begin elongation. Promoter clearance does not produce any functional gene.

A cancer initiator is a chemical or substance that causes irreversible damage to the genotype or phenotype of the cell. A promoter is a chemical or substance that promotes the expansion of the initiated cell.
What is The opposite meaning of Promoter?
promoter
Why does the promoter position differ between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
In prokaryotes, the promoter is made up of two sequences at -10 and -35. Eukaryotic promoters are diverse and difficult to characterize, they lie upstream of the gene and have regulatory elements that are several kilobases away from the start site.
