Promoter â a nucleotide sequence that enables a gene to be transcribed. The promoter is recognized by RNA polymerase, which then initiates transcription. In RNA synthesis, promoters indicate which genes should be used for messenger RNA creation â and, by extension, control which proteins the cell manufactures.
A Letter Concerning Toleration is an important work written by John Locke and originally published in latin in the late 17th century. John Locke argues in this writing for there to be a new udnerstanding between the relationships of religion and government. Providing a contrary view to that of Thomas Hobbes in Leviathan, Locke was a founder of Empiricism and denounced it for its support of toleration of the various Christian denominations.
At age 25, Madison became a delegate to the Virginia Convention, which gathered in May 1776 to declare independence from Great Britain and to write a Constitution for Virginia. George Mason was appointed to draft Virginia's new Declaration of Rights. Madison objected to Mason's use of the phrase fullest toleration, because he believed that toleration of religious dissidents was more limited than a guarantee of full and complete religious freedom. Madison urged the Legislature to amend the declaration to recognize free exercise of religion rather than toleration.
