Chez les Eucaryotes, cette séquence est localisée à environ 30 nucléotides en amont du site d'initiation de la transcription et est nommée séquence (ou boîte) Goldberg-Hogness. Elle n'est présente que dans les gènes transcrits par l'ARN polymérase II. Chez les Procaryotes, elle est localisée à environ 10 nucléotides en amont du site d'initiation de la transcription et est nommée boîte (ou séquence) Pribnow.
