Suppose there is a protein "A" which binds to a DNA sequence and increases transcription of the gene CBC23. In the presence of m

olecule "C", protein "A" changes structure and can no longer bind to the DNA sequence, resulting in reduced transcription of CBC23. What terms describe "A" and "C" respectively?

Answer:

A = Activator

B = Effector

Explanation:

An activator is a protein which typically binds to a short (50–1500 bp) region of DNA which might be located either upstream (mainly) or downstream of a gene so as to cause increased transcription. This particular region of DNA is known as enhancer and activator is also  known as transcription factor. Activator is a trans-acting factor which binds to the cis-acting factor which is enhancer so as to enhance transcriptional expression.

But another protein named as effector may restrict activator from binding to the enhancer leading to a decrease in transcriptional expression by binding to the activator allosterically. Allosteric binding of effector to the activator causes conformational change in activator so it can no longer bind the enhancer.

Describe the relationship between fatty acid chain length, saturation, and the melting point or fluidity of fatty acids.
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Because double bonds cause the hydrocarbon chain to bend. Therefore, the fatty acids cannot compact tightly together, reducing the van der Waals interaction between the fatty acids. The melting point of fatty acids is also affected by chain length. The longer the hydrocarbon chain is, the higher the melting point.

Which of these conditions is caused by bacteria? Select one: a. Seasonal allergies b. AIDS c. Colds d. Dental cavities
zlopas [31]

Hello! The best answer would be C - Colds because bacteria can reproduce and spread rapidly, which is why a cold sometimes develops fast. As for the others, your body is just adjusting to the weather with A, B is a sexually transmitted disease which is caused from contact with another through sex, D is caused by sweets/certain foods that break down your teeth. I hope I helped you!! Have a great day!!

Dear public, our ecosystem is being ruined and we need to stop it, i think you should do something about the littering and loitering in our community and in the U.S. it would help a lot of people if you made a law against it or if we went out and all did community service and helped pick up. if you don't like these ideas we could protest, but all me and my fellow people ask is that you help our <span><span>ecosystem for better lives for everyone! yours truly, citizen</span></span>
