Sequences that are involved with termination are called ter sites. A ter site contains a short, 23-bp sequence.

The termination sequences are unidirectional; that is, they function in only one orientation. The ter site is recognized by a unidirectional contrahelicase

In E. coli, two clusters of five ter sites each, including terK, -I, -E, -D, and -A on one side and terC, -B, -F, -G, and -H on the other, are located 100 kb on either side of this termination region.

Each set of ter sites is specific for one direction of fork movement
