The correct answers are:
- Methylation of histone tails in chromatin can promote condensation of the chromatin.
- DNA is not transcribed when chromatin is packaged tightly in a condensed form.
- Acetylation of histone tails is a reversible process.
- Some forms of chromatin modification can be passed on to future generations of cells.
- Acetylation of histone tails in chromatin allows access to DNA for transcription.
Histone modifications are post-translational modifications of histone protein that can affect gene expression by altering chromatin structure or recruiting histone modifiers.The most common modifications are methylation, phosphorylation, acetylation and ubiquitylation. All of them affect the binding affinity between histones and DNA and thus loosening (gene activation) or tightening (gene repression) the condensed DNA.
Histone methylation is a transfer of methyl group by histone methyltransferases to lysine or arginine amino acid of protein. Effect of methylation depends on the type of protein that is modified. Demethylation is the reverse process.
Histone acetylation is the process of adding of an acetyl group(by histone acetyltransferases) to histone proteins and it can also activate or inhibit the gene expression. Deacetilation is reverse process.
Sodium fluoride is a chemical that is added in many municipal water supplies to prevent tooth decay. You can even find it in your toothpaste if you look at the ingredients. Sodium fluoride is a very safe and effective chemical used in lots of oral products because of its benefits against tooth decay. Hope this helps!
(of an immature or stem cell) capable of giving rise to several different cell types.
Answer:
1. 15% 2. 85% 3. 70% 4. Yes because there is 15% more water outside the cell than inside 5. The water will move inside 6. Swell 7. I'm so sorry to say but I have no idea what type of cell it is. Best of luck!!!
Explanation:
Answer:
At least 6. You have to look at the chemical formula for cellular respiration and make sure it is balanced!
