A significant difference between the transcription of eukaryotic and prokaryotic RNAs is that in bacteria, transcription takes place on  RNA polymerase III synthesizes small RNAs in the nucleoplasm

A typical gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II has a promoter that extends upstream from the site where transcription is initiated.

A regulatory site that binds more negative regulators than positive regulators to control transcription is called a silencer.

Promoters that are constitutively expressed and needed in all cells (their genes are sometimes called housekeeping genes) have upstream sequence elements that are recognized by ubiquitous activators.

Proteins bound at enhancer elements interact with proteins bound at promoter elements via DNA looping, very often through intermediates called coactivators.

Eukaryotic transcription is most often under positive regulation: A transcription factor is provided under tissue-specific control to activate a promoter or set of promoters that contain a common target sequence.
