In the cell, enhancer sequence functions are limited in their range of action by the formation of ___________ that hold specific

genes and enhancers in close proximity.
Biology
1 answer:
Ne4ueva [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

loops

Explanation:

An enhancer is a region in the DNA containing about 50-1500 base pairs that can be bound to proteins to increase the likelihood of transcription of a certain gene.

In the cell, the enhancer functions are limited by the formation of loops that hold specific genes and enhancers in close proximity.

By doing so there will be structural distortion of the DNA which is important for limiting enhancer functions.

Why are enzymes important for our bodies
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Because enzymes have many functions as chemical catalysts in numerous chemical reactions (for example in metabolism). By lowering the activation energy, they make it much easier to carry out reactions. They are also indispensable for signal transduction and cell regulation, often via kinases and phosphatases. They also generate movement, with myosin hydrolyzing ATP to generate muscle contraction, and also transport cargo around the cell as part of the cytoskeleton. Other ATPases in the cell membrane are ion pumps involved in active transport.
