A transcription unit in DNA is defined primarily by the three regions in DNA and these are with respect to upstream and down stream end;

  1. Repressor, Operator gene, Structural gene
  2. Structural gene, Transposons, Operator gene
  3. Inducer, Repressor, Structural gene
  4. Promoter, Structural gene, Terminator

Answer

(4) Promoter, Structural gene, Terminator

Solution

A transcription unit in DNA is defined by three regions: a promoter (towards the 5' end, upstream of the structural gene), the structural gene, and a terminator (towards the 3' end, downstream of the coding strand).

Answer: (4)
