... , through an operon used by activators. The operon bonds directly with DNA and in its absence, the DNA polymerase proceeds at a slower rate. The activator-enhancer complex involved in the process of eukaryotic protein synthesis, functions in such a way as to contribute to the overall efficiency of cell replication as well. This is seen through the way in which the DNA ... transcription factors have better access to bonding sites on the operator. This in turn allows greater access by the RNA polymerase, which is responsible for the start of the transcription process. Due to the size of th...
