PZ120 is not considered to be an enhancer to transcription in the metallothionein 2a gene.

<h3>About metallothionein 2A.</h3>

Metallothionein-2 is a metallothionein protein that in humans is encoded by the MT2A gene.

In human it is expressed in;

pericardium

right lobe of liver
olfactory bulb
left uterine tube
external globus pallidus
right lobe of thyroid gland
upper lobe of left lung
Region I of hippocampus proper
right lung
left lobe of thyroid gland

It's molecular function are;

Protein ion binding
Zinc ion binding
Metal ion binding

It helps in various biological processes;

response to metal ion
cellular response to interleukin-3
cellular response to erythropoietin
negative regulation of growth
cellular response to zinc ion
interferon-gamma-mediated signaling pathway
cellular copper ion homeostasis
cellular zinc ion homeostasis
detoxification of copper ion

What do life functions and enzymes have in common?

igomit [66]

Answer:

Maintenance or homeostasis would be common in life-functions and enzymes.

The basic goal of different life functions is to maintain a balance for well being of an individual and thus maintenance of life.

Similarly, enzymes function in order to reach equilibrium between the reactant and the products.

Substrate and products are common terms used in both chemical equation and enzymatic reaction.

In both specific substrates are converted to respective products.

Enzymes work as a catalyst and increase the rate of a biochemical reaction.

What unique characteristic does the bonding of carbon to other atoms have and why is this important for organic molecules?

Agata [3.3K]

Explanation:

The carbon atom has unique properties that allow it to form covalent bonds to as many as four different atoms, making this versatile element ideal to serve as the basic structural component, or “backbone,” of the macromolecules. Individual carbon atoms have an incomplete outermost electron shell.

Rasek [7]

As most microbes reproduce asexually, "species" are defined by differences in their DNA sequences. when the genome of soil microbe a is analyzed, long stretches of genes from multiple species of other soil microbial species are discovered. This indicates that the microbes present in the soil underwent transformation and transfection. Transformation, shown in the image, is the process of the prokaryotic nucleus taking up the foreign DNA from other microbes present in the environment. Tranfection is like transformation but for the eukaryotic cells.
