Which of the following statements is true regarding the lys2-128d reporter? Select all that apply. a.) Mutants that activate this reporter are likely to have mutations in PIC components. b.) This reporter is sensitive to changes in chromatin maintenance because the start site is located within the ORF. c.) Mutants that activate this reporter cause downstream shifts in transcription start site selection. d.) This reporter is being used to help us rule out mutations that are likely impacting chromatin structure.
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.
