True or false? One possible way to alter chromatin structure such that genes could be transcribed would be to make histone prote
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The histones that are more positively charged, tight hardly to negatively charged DNA. So, enzymes, such as acetyltransferases, that reduce the positive charge of histones promote transcription.

Chromatin structure and its modifications can change the package of the DNA and consequently, alter the gene expression. The most common modifications of the chromatin are covalent modifications such as acetylation/deacetylation (by acetyltransferases and eacetylases), methylation (by methyltransferases), and phosphorylation (by kinases).  This is the way of gene expression regulation.

The effects of modifications are different, for example methylation promotes  condensation of the chromatin and as a consequence, prevents binding of transcription factors to the DNA (transcription is repressed).

Acetylation loosens the association between nucleosomes and DNA (because it neutralizes the positive charge of histones) and consequently promotes transcription. Deacetylation is a process opposite to acetylation.

Mutations in ubiquitin lead to malfunction of what organelle in ALS that leads to buildup of mis-folded proteins?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Mitochondria.

Explanation:

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder in which the neuron died due to mutation in superoxide dismutase 1 gene. This disease is also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.

Mitochondria structure is disorganized in ALS. The ubiquitin protein mutation leads to the malfunctioning of mitochondria and misfolded proteins are made in the mitochondria.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

Katyanochek1 [597]
The answer would be hypothalamus.

Hypothalamus is a part of the brain that located below the thalamus (hypo mean "under"). Hypothalamus can control nervous and endocrine system. It was divided into front/anterior, tuberal and back/posterior part. Thirst would be regulated by anterior and posterior part, temperature by anterior part and sexual behaviour by anterior part.
