In positive control of several sugar metabolism-related operons, the cAMP receptor protein (CRP) binds to DNA to stimulate trans
cription. Which of the following environmental conditions causes an increase in CRP activity in stimulating transcriptionCorrect a decrease in glucose and an increase in cAMP
CRP (cAMP receptor protein) is a protein found in bacteria. It is a regulatory protein.
Explanation:
CRP binds to cAMP which brings the conformational change which leads to the binding of CRP to specific sites on DNA promoter. This activates the transcription through interaction with RNA polymerase. Decrease in glucose and increase in cAMP causes an increase in CRP activity. cAMP is low when glucose behaves as a carbon source. This is due to inhibition of adenylate cyclase enzyme (cAMP producing enzyme). So, a decrease in glucose level will increase cAPM level.
Codeine is an opiate and is used to treat mild and moderate pain. It is also the main ingredient in prescription based cough suppressant. It belongs to a class of drugs known as opioid analgesics.
Codeine is a naturally occurring phenanthrene alkaloid with opioid agonist and can be extracted directly from the plant although most codeine is synthesized from the opium poppy.
Blood first enters the heart's right atrium. A muscle contraction forces the blood through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts, blood is forced through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary artery. Then it travels to the lungs
