How does the GA(T>C)A mutation in the Duffy promoter impact Duffy transcription? GACA enhancer does not release the transcription factor O The mutation from T > C inhibits Duffy mRNA binding to ribosomes O The mutation from T > C blocks Duffy mRNA splicing. O The transcription factor that binds the GATA enhancer doesn't bind GACA.
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.
![**Understanding the Impact of the GA(T>C)A Mutation in the Duffy Promoter on Transcription**
This educational resource explores how a specific mutation in the Duffy promoter affects transcription. The question posed is:
**How does the GA(T>C)A mutation in the Duffy promoter impact Duffy transcription?**
The choices provided are:
1. **GACA enhancer does not release the transcription factor.**
2. **The mutation from T > C inhibits Duffy mRNA binding to ribosomes.**
3. **The mutation from T > C blocks Duffy mRNA splicing.**
4. **The transcription factor that binds the GATA enhancer doesn't bind GACA.**
Each option represents a different hypothesis on how the mutation could alter the transcription or processing of the Duffy mRNA, emphasizing the complex nature of genetic regulation and the importance of specific nucleotide changes.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F4570aa97-d31b-43f1-9c0f-902fd4186789%2F3e857683-aeb1-4b8d-b49a-056b70f94535%2Fxrhwenv_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
