The ferritin gene encodes an IRE (Iron-response element) within the 5 UTR (untranslated region) of the MRNA Considering what you know about eukaryotic translation the IRE-BP (Iron Response Element Binding Protein) is bound to the IRE in the 5UTR you would expect: That the presence of the IRE-BP would enhance translation. That the presence of the IRE-BP would have no effect. That the presence of the IRE-BP would block translation O I don't remember enough about the IRE-BP or transiation to guess.
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.
