Where does DNA protein binding typically occur and why

Biology
1 answer:
True [87]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

DNA-binding proteins are proteins that have DNA-binding domains and thus have a specific or general affinity for single- or double-stranded DNA.[3][4][5] Sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins generally interact with the major groove of B-DNA, because it exposes more functional groups that identify a base pair. However, there are some known minor groove DNA-binding ligands such as netropsin,[6] distamycin, Hoechst 33258, pentamidine, DAPI and others.

Explanation:

here are some examples

DNA-binding proteins include transcription factors which modulate the process of transcription, various polymerizes, nucleases  which cleave DNA molecules, and histones which are involved in chromosome packaging and transcription in the cell nucleus. DNA-binding proteins can incorporate such domains as the zinc finger, the helix-turn-helix, and the leucine zipper (among many others) that facilitate binding to nucleic acid. There are also more unusual examples such as transcription activator like effectors. i hope this helped -w-

Sometimes a suffix functions independently as a medical term. give two examples of suffixes that are also terms, and explain how
aleksandrvk [35]

The answer would be –genesis and –gram. 

Suffixes that have a Greek or Latin roots and that are used to combine with other words or parts of words are not called suffixes, these kind of affixes are called combining forms.


One combing form is –genesis.


As an independent medical term, this means the origin of something in medicine. When a doctor talks about the genesis of a contagion, he or she is speaking of the point of origin of a contagion.


-genesis used as a suffix, can indicate a particular process or pathogen. Example is parthenogenesis.


One combining form is –gram.


As an independent medical term, gram indicated the metric weight of an object as a unit of mass. If nurses talk about how much serving of food, they are talking about it in grams.

-gram signifies something written down. Example is pictogram.
