Which of the following could be used to turn on a regulon (composed of multiple genes and operons) in a bacterium? There are multiple correct answers. You must select all correct options1 use riboswitches that all respond to the same molecule activate an alternative RNA polymerase mutate (change) a promoter sequence activate an alternative sigma factor O specifically degrade one kind of repressor protein
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.
