Which of the following is NOT a function of promoters in bacteria and eukaryotes? The promoter determines which strand of DNA is template and which is non-template. The promoter signals where transcription will end. A promoter is where the transcription apparatus (sigma factors or transcription factors) bind. The promoter region determines which nucleotide will be transcribed first.
