Initiation Complex Assembly

Initiation Complex Assembly is a molecular event in the transcription process that constitutes the formation of a functional pre-initiation complex at gene promoters, distinguished by the precise recruitment and spatial organization of RNA polymerase and associated general transcription factors required for the initiation of transcription.
