Question

Which of the following statements is INCORRECT about enhancers. O A. The location and orientation of the enhancer is non-specific (they are functional regardless of their general location around an within a gene). B. Both activator and repressor proteins can bind to an enhancer. C.Enhancers can only exert their effect in one direction along the DNA. D. Enahncers can bind proteins to affect the architecture (structure) of the DNA. Reset Selection Question 5 of 5 Select all of the following statements about DNA binding proteins that are INCORRECT? A. The helix-turn-helix domain is a DNA binding domain. B. The leucine zipper is a DNA binding domain. C. The zinc finger is a DNA binding domain. D. The basic helix-loop-helix domain possesses both DNA binding domains and protein dimerization domains. E. The Myc and Max proteins both contain DNA binding domains and transcription activation domains

Answer 1

1. B- both activator and repressor protein can bind to the enhancer. This is wrong. Only activator can binds to enhancer. The repressor binds to silensor.

2. D, E

This helix-loop-helix (HLH) domain mediates protein dimerization but it is not having any protein dimerization domain.

Myc contains DNA binding and transcription activation domain. not max.

Thanking you
