Question
Chapter 28, Problem 11E
Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason why eukaryotic transcription cannot be regulated by attenuation.
Introduction: Transcription attenuation is the gene regulatory mechanism. It is prokaryote specific and causes premature termination of transcription. This is because in prokaryotes, transcription and translation occur simultaneously. Expression of the trp operon in E.coli is regulated by attenuation.
