The correct answer is A, the "promoter" site is the RNA polymerase binding site on a typical gene. This is how the process of gene expression begins. The RNA polymerase (a protein that builds RNA) binds to the promoter site of the DNA strand. It then begins the process of 'transcribing' the DNA code into an RNA strand, which can then be 'translated' into an amino acid chain to form a protein, which is the expression of the gene.

In which ways can the individual steps of this process be regulated to lead to higher or lower expression of a particular protei

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

There are many points at which eukaryotic gene expression can be controlled, through pretranscriptional control, transcriptional control, and posttranscriptional control

Explanation:

The pretranscriptional control determines the accessibility of chromatin to the transcription machinery. It is affected by supercoiling and methylation. It is also known as epigenetic regulation, and it does not depend on the sequence but on the conformation of the DNA.

While transcriptional control determines the frequency and / or speed of transcription initiation through the accessibility of the start sites, the availability of transcription factors and the effectiveness of promoters.

The post-transcriptional control is the one that is exercised once the transcript has finished synthesizing. It can be of several types:

• Maturation control: As the RNA adjustment can be made.

• Transport control: Most RNA has to go out to the cytoplasm to perform its function. For this they have to cross the pores of the nuclear membrane, where you can select the RNAs that will be transported and those that will not.

• Stability control: The half-life of RNA can be regulated by the expression of RNAs or mRNA stabilizing proteins in the cytoplasm.

• Translational control: It is exercised on the frequency with which the mRNAs begin to be translated. It can also affect the frequency with which proteins mature and the availability of enzymatic effectors.

Why taking a vigorous swim right after eating is more likely to cause indigestion?

romanna [79]

Because during digestion, blood is needed to execute the process.
Swimming also requires blood so it takes the blood that was initially being used for digestion away.

hoa [83]

Answer: Chemical weathering decomposes or decays rocks and minerals. An example of this is water and limestone. Organic weathering happens when plant break up rocks. One the rock has been weakened and broken up it is ready for Erosion. This happens when rocks are picked up and move usually by water. Mechanical weathering breaks up rocks, this usually happens when water gets into cracks, freezes and expands the rock
