Which of the following statements about transcription in prokaryotes is incorrect?
A. In prokaryotes, a transcriptional activator protein must bind the activator binding site prior to RNA polymerase complex binding at the promoter. B. In prokaryotes, the binding of a repressor protein to the repressor binding site prevents the binding of RNA polymerase complex. C. In prokaryotes, the RNA polymerase complex will bind at the promoter in the presence or absence of an activator protein and transcription will proceed. D. If an activator protein binds at site far from the promoter sequence, transcription does not proceed efficiently. E. The binding sequence for an activator can be upstream of the promoter, downstream of the promoter, or overlapping with the promoter sequence.
