Why must chromatin be remodeled at a eukaryotic promoter? Histone proteins must be added to the promoter so they can recruit RNA polymerase II Histone proteins are blocking promoter sequences recognized by general transcription factors (GTFs) Space needs to be made for the ribosome to bind to a nascent (i.e. newly transcribed) mRNA Because enhancer regions need to be exposed for general transcription factor binding To allow the spliceosome to remove exons from the mRNA during transcription
