Nucleosome positioning along the DNA can influence where transcriptional regulatory proteins are able to bind DNA.
If a nucleosome is bound to an enhancer sequence, it may outcompete a regulatory protein from binding the same sequence.
Conversely, if an enhancer sequence is in the linker DNA where the nucleosome is absent, the regulatory protein does not have to compete with the nucleosome.
The position of the nucleosome can alter the accessibility of a
sequence of DNA to DNA binding proteins.
Suppose that this region of DNA contained several enhancer
sequences that bind highly conserved regulatory proteins to
stimulate transcription of a gene in this region, and that binding
is more efficient when the enhancer sequence isnot
associated with a nucleosome. Use this information to complete
these sentences.
Fill in the blanks with the appropriate words. Words may be used more than once.
a. Fall within linker DNA
b. fewer
c. be bound by nucleosomes
d. more
Since sea urchins have longer linker DNA segments than Drosophila melanogaster, when this region of DNA is moved to the sea urchin it is likely that these enhancer sequences will_______________.
With___________enhancer sequences available in sea urchins to bind regulatory proteins that stimulate transcription, the same region of DNA will likely generate__________RNA transcripts.

DNA‑binding domains recognize and bind to specific DNA sequences. Complete the sentences. The homeodomain is also called the homeobox domain. Not all words will be used. Two terms will be used more than once. A 1.) contains a metal ion in coordination with two cysteine and two histidine residues or with four cysteine residues. DNA–protein binding generally occurs in the 2.) of DNA. The 3.) , found in eukaryotes, contains a small DNA‑binding region similar to the helix‑turn‑helix motif....

PLEASE ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS: 1.What is true of tRNA (transfer RNA)? A they contain an anti-codon B they carry an amino acid C they can interpret the genetic code D all of these are true 2. How can transcription factors bound to distant enhancers influence gene expression? A the transcription factors can slide along the DNA until they get to the gene's promoter B DNA can loop, bringing these proteins into contact with the gene's promoter C both of...
Hagrid has purified a protein from unicom sweat and called UNI-1. He has then doned the Unit gone and inserted in rat zygotes (by microinjection) a recombinant construct containing the Uni-1 coding sequence its entire 5 UTR region, covering both the minimal promoter and a series of cutative regulatory als elements. The mutantrats develop glorious, luminous hair. Hagrid has also discovered that the UNI-1 protein binds very tightly to DNA and hypothesizes it is a transcription factor that regulates proliferation...
