Which of the following changes to DNA can be part of epigenetic regulation of gene expression? Choose both correct answers.
degradation of mRNA that is no longer needed |
||
methylation of DNA |
||
acetylation |
||
alternate mRNA splicing |
Acetylation, Methylation of DNA
Epigenetic inheritance or epigenetic regulation or chromatin remodeling or histone modification are all cinemas terms. They signify the inheritance of certain characteristics which is not explained on the basis of sequence of DNA. They depend upon the modification of histone proteins which are associated with DNA. These proteins are basic proteins rich in lysine and arginine. Addition of specific chemical groups like phosphate, acetyl, methyl, glucose and others at specific amino acid of histone proteins leads to change in gene expression. So, acetylation and methylation are both a type of histone modification.
Degradation of messenger RNA that are no longer useful occurs at the level of post transcriptional regulation.
Alternative splicing occurs at the level of RNA processing.

Which of the following is not true regarding regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes? In eukaryotic cells, transcriptional activators often work by recruiting the transcriptional macinery to gene promoters DNA methylation is an example of an epigenetic mark that can be inherited Acetylation of histones can result in a more open chromatin structure to allow transcription to occur Different genes can be turned off or on between different organs or stages of development Transcription factor DNA sequences are bound by...
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...
Which of the following is NOT an example of genomic control of gene regulation? A. DNA Methylation B. Gene Amplification C. DNA rearrangement D. Alternative RNA Splicing Could I please get an explanation included with the answer? Thank you!
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...
What does the phrase "epigenetic transgenerational inheritance of disease susceptibility" mean? Question options: a) changes to factors that affect gene expression, that are passed down to offspring, and affect whether or not offspring will get a particular disease b) changes to DNA sequences, that are passed down to offspring, and affect whether offspring will get a particular disease c) changes to factors that affect gene expression, that can be passed on from offspring to parents, and affect whether or notparents...

Understanding control of gene expression by chromatin regulation We discussed how maternal grooming behavior regulates anxiety and stress response in rats. Rats raised by low-care mothers grow up to be more anxious and guarded adults. Rats raised by high-care mothers on the other hand become more relaxed adults. Below are two key results from the study that discovered this phenomenon. Scientists looked at DNA methylation in the promoter of a gene called glucocorticoid receptor which is expressed in the hippocampus...

Choose all that apply. alternative splicing of mRNA opening or condensing chromatin transcriptional regulation post-translational regulation
