Answer:
Explanation:
The Escherichia coli catabolite gene activator protein (CAP) is a DNA binding protein involved with the transcription of several genes, including those that code for enzymes involved in the metabolism of certain sugars (i.e. lactose, maltose, and arabinose.) <u>Basically, CAP is responsible for the global regulation of carbon utilization.</u> Upon binding cAMP, CAP binds to a conserved DNA sequence from which it can either activate or repress transcription initiation from various promoters. In some cases clusters of several promoters are all controlled by a single cAMP-CAP complex bound to the DNA.
Once CAP has bound cAMP, the protein exhibits a higher affinity for a specific conserved DNA sequence. When the intracellular level of cAMP increases, the second messenger is bound by CAP and the cAMP-CAP complex binds to the DNA. Once bound, it is able to stimulate the transcription of the aforementioned genes. DNA bound by the CAP-cAMP complex is bent by ~90 degrees. This DNA bend, coupled with a protein-protein interaction between CAP and RNA polymerase is thought to be the mechanism by which CAP regluates transcription initiation on the chromosome.
Answer:
Acetylation of histone tails is a reversible process.
DNA is not transcribed when chromatin is packaged tightly in a condensed form.
Methylation of histone tails in chromatin can promote condensation of chromatin.
Acetylation of histone tails in chromatin allows access to DNA for transcription.
Eukaryotic chromatin structure is a highly complex assembly which needs to be simplified in order to undergo process of transcription. Eukaryotic chromatin structure is highly condensed in nature and DNA cannot be access for transcription. Actylation of histone tails is a process in which breaks the bond of attraction between adjacent nucleosomes. It results in chromatin being condensed attains a loose form. Transcription of DNA can occur in a loose chromatin. Methylation can promote condensation or decondensation of chromatin structure depending upon the methyl group present in the histone.
The difference in the concentration of a substance across a space is called a concentration [ equilibrium / gradient ]. ... If there is a concentration gradient, substances will move from an area of high concentration to an area of [ equal / low ] concentration
the total number of pushes all together will be <u>8</u><u>N</u>
Answer: This is because animals (like humans) have more organelles to store in our bodies than bacteria. This makes sense because without all of our organelles we wouldn't be able to function properly. This is just another one of those form=function things.
