Question

In humans, the steroid hormone testosterone enters cells and binds to specific proteins, which in turn bind to specific sites on the cells' DNA. The result is expression of genes associated with male sexual characteristics. What is the function of these proteins?

Answer 1

Answer:

Translation is the process of formation of the protein  from the RNA molecules. Different proteins and enzymes  are required for the process of translation. Three steps of translation are- initiation, elongation and termination.

The testosterone hormone  in humans beings help in the development of the sperms and the male secondary sexual characters. The testosterone hormone binds with the specific proteins. Protein then binds to the specific DNA sites. These proteins helps in the transcription of the specific genes and may acts as the enhancers molecules. These proteins helps in the transcription of the certain genes.
