FIGURĘ 6.19 InternaI Prom ot er for RN A Polymerase III

The gene for 5S rRNA is transcribed using a promołer located within the gene itself. The recognition sites are downstream of the start site. TFIIIC (or TFIIIA) binds to both sites and this induces TFIIIB to bind to the promoter near the start site. Only after TFIIIB binds can RNA polymerase III bind.
