If you block histone deacetylase, what effect would you expect to see on transcriptional activity?.

Biology
1 answer:
Shalnov [3]3 years ago
8 0
Histone deacetylase is responsible for removing the acetyl group from the histone 3 lysine 9 residue. Remember that deacetylation is one step in converting euchromatin to heterochromatin. Because euchromatin is transcriptionally active (transcriptional machinery is able to reach gene of interest), and blocking histone deacetylase activity would result in an the DNA remaining as euchromatin, we would expect to see an increase in transcriptional activity.

So there’s your answer: An increase in transcriptional activity.

What two characteristics do fungi lack that forced them to become decomposers
Artist 52 [7]
Fungi are decomposers, they obtain their food from dead organic matters. Fungi obtain their nutrient this way because they can not produce their own food. To produce their own food they need chloroplast in their cells to obtain energy from the sun. And they also need the ability to fix nitrogen which they will incorporate into the food they produce. Because they lack the ability to do this thing, they have to adapt to eating dead materials. <span />
