You are free to take this quiz based on the downstream TFIIB recognition element at any time.

To improve your score, read and study the lecture, the links contained within, listed under See also, External links, and in the {{gene project}} template. This should give you adequate background to get 100 %.

As a "learning by doing" resource, this quiz helps you to assess your knowledge and understanding of the information, and it is a quiz you may take over and over as a learning resource to improve your knowledge, understanding, test-taking skills, and your score.

Suggestion: Have the lecture available in a separate window.

To master the information and use only your memory while taking the quiz, try rewriting the information from more familiar points of view, or be creative with association.

Enjoy learning by doing!

Quiz

edit

  

1 Yes or No, A TFIIB recognition element (BRE) functions to determine the orientation of the TFIIB-TBP-TATA complex that projects the zinc ribbon of TFIIB toward the TSS.

Yes
No

2 The portion of the promoter in which a distal promoter is likely to be found is which of the following?

dispersed promoter
proximal promoter
downstream promoter
distant promoter
enhancer
focused promoter

3 Yes or No, The TFIIB-DNA contact with the BREd takes place via the minor groove, while that with the upstream B recognition element (BREu) takes place through the major groove.

Yes
No

4 Several promoter elements have been previously identified in eukaryotes, but those cannot account for transcription from most RNA polymerase II-transcribed

5 Yes or No, Some distal promoters are located in the dispersed promoter.

Yes
No

6 Which of the following is not a transcriptional characteristic of distal promoters?

located between nucleotides -8 and +2 relative to the transcriptional start site (+1)
G/A/T-G/C+1-G-T/C-G-G-G/A-A-G/C
in eukaryotes
TATA-less genes
a consensus sequence
