General Information
Term transcription initiation at RNA polymerase II promoter ID (Ontology) GO:0006367 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A transcription initiation process that takes place at a RNA polymerase II gene promoter. Messenger RNAs (mRNA) genes, as well as some non-coding RNAs, are transcribed by RNA polymerase II.
Also Known As "transcription initiation from Pol II promoter" ; "transcription initiation from RNA polymerase II promoter"
