Term Name: RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding
Synonyms: RNA polymerase II core promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding, RNA polymerase II distal enhancer sequence-specific DNA binding, RNA polymerase II promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding, RNA polymerase II proximal promoter sequence-specific DNA binding, RNA polymerase II upstream activating sequence (UAS) sequence-specific DNA binding
Definition: Binding to a specific upstream regulatory DNA sequence (transcription factor recognition sequence or binding site) located in cis relative to the transcription start site (i.e., on the same strand of DNA) of a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II.
