Results in a hairpin loop structure in RNA, AND results in the polymerase falling off the DNA template.
Explanation:
As the RNA polymerase arrives at the terminator site, it pauses. The termination of RNA transcription occurs when an RNA transcript with a self-complementary sequence is formed leading to the formation of the hairpin structure. The hairpin structure has 15-20 nucleotides.
The hairpin structure of RNA weakens A=U base pairs in RNA-DNA hybrid and/or weakens the interaction between RNA and RNA polymerase. The overall effect is the dissociation of RNA polymerase from the complex and termination of the transcription.
