A gene product of unknown function was subjected to both two hybrid analysis and BioID. In the two hybrid analysis it was found to bind to XPD and XPG, while BioID labelled a DNA ligase and PCNA. What cellular process might this protein be involved in? Options: non-homologous end-joining transcription RNA degradation DNA repair iron homeostasis
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.
