Turnip crinkle virus (TCV) core promoter hairpin (Pr)
Encyclopedia
The turnip crinkle virus (TCV) core promoter hairpin (Pr) is an RNA element
located in the 3' UTR of the viral genome
that is required for minus strand
RNA synthesis. The picture shown is not the TCV core promoter, but an upstream hairpin that is also required for replication of the virus.
Cis-regulatory element
A cis-regulatory element or cis-element is a region of DNA or RNA that regulates the expression of genes located on that same molecule of DNA . This term is constructed from the Latin word cis, which means "on the same side as". These cis-regulatory elements are often binding sites for one or...

Genome
In modern molecular biology and genetics, the genome is the entirety of an organism's hereditary information. It is encoded either in DNA or, for many types of virus, in RNA. The genome includes both the genes and the non-coding sequences of the DNA/RNA....
