This is one of the best, easy to understand explanations of attenuation and the attenuator region in prokaryotic DNA. -jorgeKluney —Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.53.110.141 (talk) 20:17, 7 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Indeed this is a very good explanation, therefore it seems to be seperated into two redundant part, when the second part is more precise. Just in case someone is interested in improving the article... --84.228.10.134 (talk) 15:11, 10 July 2012 (UTC)Reply

Indeed the first part is pretty imprecise and could be simplified. The second paragraph with a more detailed explanation is good. --TransControl (talk) 08:47, 16 April 2013 (UTC)--Reply

Rename article?

This article seems to be entirely about peptide leaders. I suspect attenuation is actually a much more generic phenomena including certain riboswitches. I suggest renaming the article Peptide leader. --Paul (talk) 13:08, 11 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Article has now been expanded to mention other examples and classes. --james 04:40, 21 November 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Some.scruffy.kid (talk • contribs)

Cleanup of the trp operon section

This section is lacking references and could be integrated with the section "Mechanisms in the trp operon". --james 04:46, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
