RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding

Term Information

Feedback 
Accession
GO:0000977
Name
RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
RNA polymerase II regulatory region DNA binding
Alternate IDs
GO:0001012
Definition
Binding to a specific sequence of DNA that is part of a regulatory region that controls the transcription of a gene or cistron by RNA polymerase II. Source: GOC:txnOH
Comment
To minimize ambiguity in the use of the word "promoter" in GO, we have chosen the phrase "transcription regulatory region" to refer to all of the regulatory regions. Regulatory regions in the DNA which control initiation may include the "core promoter" where the basal transcription machinery binds, the "core promoter proximal region" where regulatory factors other than the basal machinery bind. There are also additional regulatory regions, in both the DNA and the RNA transcript, which regulate elongation or termination of transcription.
