SEQUENCE ONTOLOGY - ANNOTATIONS

The Sequence Types and Features Ontology (SO) is downloaded weekly from the SourceForge CVS repository at http://song.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/song/ontology/. For more information about this ontology, see the Sequence Ontology Home Page at http://www.sequenceontology.org/.

Term:terminator

Accession:SO:0000141 term browser browse the term
Definition:The sequence of DNA located either at the end of the transcript that causes RNA polymerase to terminate transcription.
Comment:Moved from transcription_regulatory_region (SO:0001679) to transcriptional_cis_regulatory_region (SO:0001055) by Dave Sant on Feb 11, 2021 when transcription_regulatory_region was merged into transcriptional_cis_regulatory_region to be consistent with GO and reduce redundancy as part of the GREEKC consortium. See GitHub Issue #527.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: INSDC_qualifier:terminator;   terminator sequence
 broad_synonym: INSDC_feature:regulatory
