Based on the results, which of the following best describes what Protein X is a transcription factor.

<h3>What are transcription factors?</h3>

Transcription factors are proteins that contain at least two functional domains: one binding with DNA and the other binding with RNA polymerase. These proteins control when, where and how the genes will be transcribed, being the basis for the control of gene expression.

In this case the protein X is a transcription factor which means proteins that help turn specific genes "on" or "off" by connecting to nearby DNA. Transcription factors that are activators drive the transcription of a gene.

  • stabilizing membrane structure-because of their ability to bind water molecules via hydrogen bonds
  • cell signaling-they are often membrane receptors for the hormones and neurotrasmitters
  • cell attachment (adhesion)-for the connection between cells

This type of bond results in the exchange of electrons?
MissTica
An ionic bond results in an exchange or transfer of electrons between the 2 different types of atoms, most likely the metal atom and nonmetal one.

For example the compound NaF is held together by electrostatic forces of positive and negative charges due to the transfer of electrons from the sodium to fluoride atom.
