Question
Chapter 2.5, Problem 2.4.2QC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The function of RNA polymerase in transcription.
Introduction:
Transcription is the process of synthesis of mRNA from a single strand of DNA. The strand of DNA which is being copied to form mRNA is termed as the template strand. The DNA strand that corresponds to the RNA is termed as the coding strand. In eukaryotes, transcription occurs in the nucleus.

From your previous experiment, you found that this enhancer activates stripe 2 of eve expression. When you sequence this enhancer you find several binding sites for the gap gene, Giant. To test how Giant interacts with eve, you decide to remove all of the Giant binding sites from the eve enhancer. What results do you expect to see with respect to eve expression?
What experiment could you do to see if the maternal gene, bicoid, is sufficient to form anterior fates?
You’re curious about the effect that gap genes have on the pair-rule gene, evenskipped (eve), so you isolate and sequence each of the eve enhancers. You’re particularly interested in one of the enhancers, which is just upstream of the eve gene.
Describe an experimental technique you would use to find out where this particular eve enhancer is active.
