a decrease in expression. It will cause an increase in expression. It will cause the methylation of that DNA. It will only permit DNA replication, but will silence the gene. It will only change the chromatin structure, with no effect on gene expressio
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
A protein causes the acetylation of histones. What effect do you think this will have on a gene in that region?
- It will cause a decrease in expression.
- It will cause an increase in expression.
- It will cause the methylation of that DNA.
- It will only permit
DNA replication , but will silence the gene. - It will only change the chromatin structure, with no effect on gene expression.
