Summary Introduction
Introduction: Regulation of the processes of the cell is carried out by many different molecules. Regulation of transcription is the reason why certain cells express proteins which other cells do not despite the fact that they have the same genetic material. Regulation is also important as it is important that transcription of a gene gives rise to the correct protein that it encodes for.
