The Functional and Regulatory Roles of Sigma Factors in Transcription
Abstract
In prokaryotic cells, a single subunit of RNA polymerase, called sigma, orchestrates the process of transcription initiation. Sigma binds to the multisubunit coreRNA polymerase (α2ββ′), creating RNA polymeraseholoenzyme (α2ββ′σ), which performs transcription initiation. Holoenzyme recognizes the two conserved hexamer sequences that constitute a prokaryotic promoter,exposes the single-stranded DNA template necessary fortranscription initiation, and begins synthesizing thenascent RNA chain. When the nascent RNA is five to tennucleotides long, sigma is released, terminating the initiation phase of transcription. Core RNA polymerase thencarries out the elongation and termination phases of transcriptio...

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
