Abstract
The SV40 early promoter consists of the TATA-box, which directs the transcriptional machinery/RNA polymerase to the specific startsites of transcriptional initiation, and the 21-bp repeat region and enhancer, both of which are indispensable for efficient early transcription. Specific sequence motifs in the different promoter elements interact with specific trans-acting transcription factors to form a large nucleoprotein complex at the promoter. It is the coordinate functioning of the various promoter elements and their cognate protein factors which is required to promote transcription.
