- | '''Sigma (σ) factor''' is the peoptide subunit needed for the initiation of RNA transcription in prokaryotic organisms <scene name='59/591940/Sigma_factor_in_enzyme/1'>as seen here</scene>. As opposed to eukaryotes, who utilize a variety of proteins to initiate gene transcription, prokaryotic transcription is initiated almost completely by a σ-factor. The large and biologically essential protein, RNA polymerase (RNAP), contains one σ-subunit, which binds <scene name='59/591940/Dna_promoter/3'>DNA promoter sequences</scene>, located upstream of transcription start sites. | + | '''Sigma (σ) factor''' is the peoptide subunit needed for the initiation of RNA transcription in prokaryotic organisms <scene name='59/591940/Sigma_factor_in_enzyme/1'>as seen here</scene>.

| Since σ-factors are exclusively linked to gene expression in prokaryotic organisms, the variety of σ-factors in a cell dictate how and what genes are transcribed. Specialized function in cells, therefore, is highly moderated by its arsenal of σ-subunits. In fact, cellular development and differentiation are directly impacted and carried out by "cascades" of σ-factors. In the early stages of development, '''early genes'''[2] are transcribed by basic '''bacterial σ-factors'''. These genes are therefore transcribed to give new σ-factors, which in turn activate additional genes, and so on [2]. This process of σ-factor cascades demonstrates the versatile and essential biologic functions of the RNAP subunit, σ. | | Since σ-factors are exclusively linked to gene expression in prokaryotic organisms, the variety of σ-factors in a cell dictate how and what genes are transcribed.
