Q. Which of the following describes the role of acetylation during the chromatin remodeling that accompanies gene expression? A. It adds an acetyl group to the DNA of a promoter sequence. B. It adds an acetyl group to the histone protecting the promoter region of a gene. C. It adds an acetyl group to the cyotsine nucleotides of DNA. D. It adds an acetyl group to the histone protecting the transcription unit of a gene.
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.
