Answer:
The correct answer is E-processing of exons in mRNA that results in a single gene coding for multiple proteins.
Explanation
Splicing is the process where introns are cut out of the mRNA so only the coding parts for proteins. In this way, genes can code for many proteins, depending on how the amino-acids are arranged.
Answer:
Transcriptional regulators function to regulate the expression of different genes and also to affect the expression of other transcriptional regulators, thereby the combination of a few transcriptional regulators is sufficient to modulate gene expression patterns
Explanation:
Transcriptional regulators are able to control gene expression by binding to cis-regulatory elements on the genome. For example, in plants, MADS-box proteins are transcriptional regulators that contain an evolutionary conserved DNA-binding domain (i.e., MADS-box domain) which regulate simultaneously the expression of many different genes by binding to a conserved DNA motif called CArG box [CC(A/T)6GG] located in the promoter region of many genes expressed at specific stages of plant development. Within the cell, transcription regulators function not only by controlling the expression of different genes but also by affecting each other's activity, thereby creating different combinations where the expression of a limited number of transcription regulators is sufficient enough to regulate gene expression patterns.
