Identify the correct sequence of involvement of the following events during transcription in prokaryotes.
A
Attachment of RNA polymerase to the promoter region
B
Synthesis of RNA in the 
direction
direction C
Association of sigma factor with RNA polymerase
D
Termination of transcription by rho factor Choose the correct answer from the options given below
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Correct sequence of involvement of the following events during transcription in prokaryotes is: The sigma factor first associates with RNA polymerase. The enzyme associated with sigma factor attaches to the promoter region on DNA. RNA polymerase synthesizes RNA in the 
direction. After reaching terminator region, the rho factor causes transcription to terminate.
