mariarad [96]

Answer:

transcription initiation

Explanation:

Transcription is a process by which genetic information from DNA is used to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually, a messenger RNA (mRNA), which is subsequently utilized to synthesize a protein by a process called translation. Transcription in prokaryotes has three steps:

1-Initiation: the RNA polymerase is a multisubunit enzyme (holoenzyme) composed of two α, one β, one β’ and one ω and σ subunits (α2ββ’ωσ). This holoenzyme binds to the promoter region of the template DNA strand.

2-Elongation. The sigma σ factor of the holoenzyme is released and the complex and the core enzyme (α2 ββω) moves along the template strand, thereby producing an mRNA sequence

3-Termination. This step can be Rho-dependent, where a protein named "Rho" recognizes the termination site and stop transcription, and Rho-independent (transcription continues until the termination sequence is reached).

In consequence, Rifamycin is likely to block the initiation of transcription because the core RNA enzyme needs to bind the sigma factor (σ) for initiation of transcription in bacteria.

The conversion of malate to oxaloacetate in the citric acid cycle takes place with the conversion of NAD to NADH. In this reacti
Mariana [72]

Answer:

a) the oxidizing agent.

Explanation:

In the citric acid cycle, malate is dehydrogenated into oxaloacetate and the reaction is catalyzed by malate dehydrogenase. The released electrons are accepted by NAD+. So, NAD+ is reduced into NADH. The substances that accept electrons during chemical reactions and are reduced to oxidize the other substances are called oxidizing agents. NAD+ serves as an oxidizing agent as it accepts electrons to oxidize malate into oxaloacetate.
