Textbook Question
Chapter 17.2, Problem 1CC
MAKE CONNECTIONS → In a research artide about alkaptonuria published in 1902, Garrod suggested that humans inherit two "characters" (alleles) for a particular enzyme and that both parents must contribute a faulty version for the offspring to have alkaptonuria. Today, would this disorder be called dominant or recessive? (See Concept 14.4.)
1. What is a promoter? Is it located at the upstream or downstream end of a transcription unit?
