Answer : The correct option is A ( Histones, Inhibited)
Explanation: Histones are the basic proteins that contain high amounts of basic amino acids such as arginine and lysine. They play a role in packaging eukaryotic DNA into structural units called nucleosomes. There are five types of histone proteins in eukaryotic chromosomes namely, H1, H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. H1 is called the linker histone and highly conserved and the last four histones in copies of two forms the histone octamer found at the centre of nucleosome.
When DNA is coiled/in a condensed state. the promoter sites are not accessable to the transcriptional machinery such as transcriprion factors as well as to RNA polymerase. This condensation of DNA is brought about by the packaging proteins called Histones. Apart from its involvement in DNA packaging, they also have a vital role in eukaryotic gene regulation which is brought about by acetylation and deacetylation of histone proteins. So condensed or coiled DNA is transcriptionally inactive.
Acetylation of Histones activates promotes, since acetylated histones releives DNA for transcription purpose, whereas deacetylated histones condenses DNA as their affinity for DNA increases, thus preventing transcription.
