Intrinsic RNA Chain Termination is Determined by Specific Sequences in the DNA

Question

Intrinsic RNA chain termination is determined by specific sequences in the DNA called ____ sites.
A) termination
B) rho binding
C) template binding
D) supercoil
E) all are true

Accepted Answer

Intrinsic RNA chain termination is determined by specific sequences in the DNA called termination sites. These sites signal the RNA polymerase to terminate transcription and release the RNA molecule. Rho binding sites and template binding sites are also involved in transcription, but they are not specifically responsible for intrinsic termination. Supercoiling can affect transcription efficiency but does not determine termination.
