The diagram below shows the structure of DNA from the level of a gene to a condensed mitotic chromosome. At each of the four locations marked, indicate how a gene may be regulated by selecting from the choices given. Some answer choices may fit into more than one position; however, you should use each answer choice only once. Choices given: Alternative splicing within the gene sequence can lead to different forms of mRNA. A promoter region can be blocked by another protein. Histone deacetylation can prevent DNA from unwinding. A regulatory region can be bound and increase transcription rates.
Modifications of histone tails can: O repress the transcription of some genes affect chromatin structure affect the transcription of some genes in response to the diet or environment activate the transcription of some genes all of these choices are correct The ferritin gene encodes an IRE (Iron-response element) within the 5 UTR (untranslated region) of the MRNA Considering what you know about eukaryotic translation, the IRE-BP (Iron Response Element Binding Protein) is bound to the IRE in the 5'UTR. you would expect: O That the presence of the IRE-BP would enhance translation. That the presence of the IRE-BP would have no effect. That the presence of the IRE-BP would block translation I don't remember enough about the IRE-BP or transiation to guess. 3 Assuming that the trait represented by the filled symbols in the pedigree is an inherited trait due to a single gene with alleles A and a, what mode of inheritance does the pedigree shown suggest?
Transcription factors function in the nucleus. However, like (almost) all eukaryotic proteins,they are translated in the cytosol. Can you draw a visual to explain how transcription factor proteinsenter the nucleus from the cytoplasm? Can you also include a representation of relevant proteins and proteindomains to explain how these proteins reach their destination. Thank you
A cell is homozygous for a LOF mutation in the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) gene. Which of the following is/are true? a. Chromatin in the cell will be more condensed than usual, decreasing expression of genes that should be expressed. b. This will lead to histones with more positive charges on their tails, increasing the interaction between histones and the DNA backbone. c. This will lead to a decrease in DNA methylation and therefore cause an increase in gene expression. d. Chromatin in the cell will be less condensed than usual, increasing expression of genes that should not be expressed.
Nucleosome positioning could affect the transcriptional activity of a gene. Give your inference on the activity of the gene in these condition: 1. No histone H1 protein and nucleosome structures cover the promoter, 2. Nucleosome crosslinked with histone H1 flanking the promoter region. 3. No nucleosome and Histone H1 flanking the promoter region.
Regulation of Gene Expression by Chromatin Modification is Local and Dynamic! What does the statement above mean?
Lack of phosporylation of the C-terminal domian of Pol Il will result in which of the following? O Assembly of the full set of general transcription factors plus Pol II at the promoter, but unphosphorylated Pol II cannot leave the promoter region No assembly of the general transcription factors at a promoter No binding of Pol II at a promoter The unphosphorylated Pol II can initiate and elongate but cannot terminate
