Human Computer InteractionThe TATA box in the regulatory region of most eukaryotic genes is necessary for transcription. What specifically is the function of the TATA box?

A.
RNA polymerase II binds directly to it and thus directly to the promoter.

B.
It is bound by TBB of TFIID which, in conjunction with the other general transcription factors, recruits RNA Polymerase II.

C.
It can be bound by repressor proteins to prevent transcription.

D.
It ensures that DNA is properly aligned with enhancer sequences to facilitate binding of general transcription factors.
