found: Work cat.: Transcription start sites in Cryptococcus neoformans, 2006:p. 5 (The TATA box is the first transcription element to be discovered in the eukaryote promoter and the sequence TATA(A/T)A is conserved in all eukaryotic organisms. This element is essential to transcription initiation in that the binding of TFIID -Transcription Factor II D-- to the TATA box usually induces the assembly of transcription machinery)
found: MeSH, Nov. 10, 2007:(Mesh Heading, Tata Box, a conserved A-T rich sequence which is contained in promoters for RNA polymerase II. The segment is seven base pairs long and the nucleotides most commonly found are TATAAAA. Entry term: Hogness box)
found: Wikipedia, Nov. 10, 2007(TATA Box, also called Goldberg-Hogness box, is a DNA sequence (Cis-regulatory element) found in the promoter region of most genes (it is considered to be the core promoter sequence) in eukaryotes. It is the binding site of either transcription factors or histones (binding of a transcription factor blocks binding of a histone and vice versa) and is involved in the process of transcription by RNA polymerase. It has the core DNA sequence 5'-TATAAA-3' or a variant, which is usually followed by three or more adenine bases and has been highly conserved through evolution. The TATA box is usually located 25 base pairs upstream to the transcription site)
found: Online Medical Dictionary, Nov. 10, 2007(TATA Box (Molecular biology), a consensus sequence found in the promoter region of most genes transcribed by eukaryotic RNA polymerase II. Found about 25 nucleotides before the site of initiation of transcription and has the consensus sequence, 5' TATAAAA 3. This sequence seems to be important to determining accurately the position at which transcription is initiated.)
