Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

General transcription factors are proteins, not sequences, that are involved in the transcription process by helping to form the transcription pre-initiation complex. Regulatory elements, on the other hand, are specific DNA sequences (such as enhancers, silencers, core promoters, and cis-acting elements) that control the transcription of nearby genes.
