Transcription activators are different from transcription factors in that A. transcription factors prevent RNA polymerase bindin
Nesterboy [21]

Correct answer is option D.

Transcription activators accelerate transcription, while transcription factors assist RNA polymerase binding.

<h2><u></u></h2><h2><u>Explanation</u></h2>

Transcription factors are the proteins which help in proper binding of RNA polymerases in the promoter region of DNA so as to facilitate transcription.

Activators on the other hand, help in the enhancement of the transcription rate.  

Transcriptional activators are basically proteins which bind to the regulatory elements known as enhancers so as to increase the rate of transcription. Enhancers are specific DNA sequences, which may be present in the upstream or downstream region of the gene which is going to be transcribed.

It may be noted here that transcription factors are only present in eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, sigma factors are present instead of  transcription factors to facilitate proper binding of RNA polymerases on the DNA.

A research team needs an antibody that binds to a protein of interest so that protein expression can be monitored. They use epit
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

C.The added epitope disrupts the function of the tagged protein

Explanation:

When an additional sequence is tagged to a protein to use comercial antibodies, there are several reasons why this procedure wouldn't work as expected (note that we're assuming the protein is being expressed but it's not possible to detect it).

For example, the sequence of nucleotide added to codify for the tagged epitope are removed during the RNA processing. In that case, the protein would be expressed without the epitope, so it would be impossible to localize it with the antibodies.

Also, it could be that the new epitope is affecting some way the protein folding, making it not functional. This way, it would be degraded by the cell so it wouldn't be detected.

Another possibility is that the epitope doesn't affects the protein folding nor its function, but during the folding ends up in a conformation that makes it inaccesible for the antibody.

In summary, the way as the possible answers to this question are shown, the correct option seems to be C:<em> The added epitope disrupts the function of the target protein.</em>

What should you do with its contents if you are done using a test tube?
umka21 [38]
If a test tube has been used, and its contents is supposed to be disposed, carefully pour the contents to the lavatory with a confirmation of a professional (as it may damage the pipelines of the sink) and ensure that there are no splashes created that can contact the human skin. Wash the test tube thoroughly and let dry.
