Can one transcription factor sometimes act as a repressor and sometimes act as an activator? O a. Yes, but it depends on where the transcription factor binds in the promoter O b. Yes, but it depends on other proteins that migth act with the transcription factor O c. No, transcription factors are always either activators or repressors O d. Yes, but only if a mutation happens One of the genes upregulated by EWS-FLI1, PTPL1, is a protein tyrosine phosphatase. Which statement about protein tyrosine phosphatases is FALSE? O a. They can inactivate cytoplasmic proteins by removing a phosphate O b. They can inactivate tyrosine kinase receptors by removing a phosphate O c. They can activate cytoplasmic proteins by removing a phosphate O d. They can inactivate cytoplasmic proteins by adding a phosphate
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.
