E. Acetylation |
The direct mechanism that can switch off gene expression is methylation.
C.Methylation is a epigenetic signalling tool that can fix gene into off position.
Translation inhibition is inhibition of protein synthesis
mRNA synthesis inhibition is reduced carrying of specific aminoacid sequence of protein product of gene expression
Phosphorylation is a process of addion of phosphate to ADP to form ATP in mitochondria.
Acetylation helps in DNA transcription.

1) In both eukaryotes and prokaryotes, gene expression can be regulated at the level of ____. Group of answer choices a)transcription b)translation c)mRNA splicing d)All of the above e)transcription and translation only 2)Which of the following is the least likely mechanism to convert a proto-oncogene to an oncogene? Group of answer choices a)gene amplification b)point mutation within the gene c)point mutation in the promoter or enhancer regions d)histone acetylation e)chromosome translocation
Which of the following mechanisms to regulate gene expression are observed in eukaryotes, but are not generally observed in prokaryotes? Choose all that apply. Genes are grouped into operons, which allows transcriptional regulation to turn them all on together. RNA silencing selectively targets mRNA and destroys it to prevent further translation. Proteins can be activated or deactivated as a form of post-translational regulation. Epigenetic regulation can open or condense sectiosn of a chromosome, regulating which genes are transcribed. Regulatory proteins...
Part 1. Eukaryotes use at least two distinct mechanisms to control gene expression by altering the structure of chromatin around a particular gene. One of these mechanisms is the covalent modification of histones to switch DNA between an open and closed confirmation. A second mechanism is the covalent modification of DNA (typically on cytosines) by methylation. A. Describe a type of histone modification and explain what effect is has on chromatin, and how that effect is achieved. a. One type...

Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes regulate gene expression, turning genes on and off in response to various cues. Which of the following mechanisms is common to both types of cells? Choose all that apply. alternative splicing of mRNA opening or condensing chromatin transcriptional regulation post-translational regulation
Regulation of Gene Expression in Eukaryotes Part A -Modification of chromatin structure Which statements about the modification of chromatin structure in eukaryotes are true? Select all that apply. View Available Hint(s) Acetylation of histone tails is a reversible process Some forms of chromatin modification can be passed on to future generations of cells. DNA is not transcribed when chromatin is packaged tightly in a condensed form. O Acetylation of histone tails in chromatin allows access to DNA for transcription. Deacetylation...
