Specifically, one who sets on foot, and takes the preliminary steps in, a scheme for the organization of a corporation, a joint-stock company, or the like
A segment of DNA near the beginning of a gene that controls if and when the gene is actually expressed Promoters can be specific for certain tissues such as roots, seeds, etc
A DNA sequence that is located in front of a gene and controls gene expression Promoters are required for binding of RNA polymerase to initiate transcription
Region on a DNA molecule involved in RNA polymerase binding to initiate transcription [DDBJ/ EMBL/ GenBank Feature Table] http: //www ebi ac uk/embl/Documentation/FT_definitions/feature_table html
An agent that is not carcinogenic itself, but when administered after an initiator of carcinogenesis, stimulates the clonal expansion of the initiated cell to produce a neoplasm
a region of DNA usually occurring upstream from a gene coding region and acting as a controlling element in the expression of that gene It serves as a recognition signal for an RNA polymerase and marks the site of initiation of transcription
This is an agent which increases tumour production by another substance when applied to susceptible organisms after their exposure to the first substance
A segment of DNA located at the "front" end of a gene, which provides a site where the enzymes involved in the transcription process can bind on to a DNA molecule, and initiate transcription Promoters are critically involved in the regulation of gene expression Source : PhRMA Genomics
The region on DNA to which RNA polymerase binds and initiates transcription (of RNA) The promoter "promotes" the transcription (expression) of a particular gene Top of Page
An individual, partnership, corporation, association or other legal entity that has entered into a sanctioning contract, whether regular, special or probational, with WISSOTA for the conduct of WISSOTA sanctioned racing events and remains solely responsible for the conduct and promotion of the racing event and the condition and safety of the promoter's facility at which the racing event is conducted
Any component added to a catalyst to increase activity or selectivity Examples are tin added to platinum reforming catalysts to improve selectivity to coke formation and chloride added to isomerization catalysts to increase activity
(noun) Someone who promotes live wrestling events in front of an audience, although may not necessarily own/operate the wrestling league that they are promoting For example, there are currently promoters in each major city who help the major federations secure the arena and promote the show locally when they come to that town And although they promoted the event, they have nothing to do with booking the matches or what happens at the show
