Why can’t eukaryotic transcription regulation by attenuation?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Eukaryotic transcription cannot be regulated by attenuation because the transcription and translation occur in different sites.

Step by step solution

01

Translation in eukaryotes

In eukaryotes, transcription occurs in the nucleus but translation occurs in the cytoplasm but inprokaryotes both translation and transcription occurs in the cytoplasm so that the transcription can be regularlyregulated attenuated.

02

Site of translation

But in eukaryotes, the site of transcription and translation occurs in the different sites so that for translation the ribosome should be transferred into the cytoplasm for content with m RNA. Contents of m-RNA are a more essential step for attenuation.

Hence, the transcription in eukaryotes cannot be regulated by attenuation.

What is the source of the repetitive DNA in the human genome?

Question . B cells suppress the expression of all but one heavy chain allele and one light chain allele, a process known as allelic exclusion, by inhibiting the further somatic recombination of heavy and light chain genes after a productive recombination has occurred. Describe the aberrant properties of immunoglobulins produced by a B cell in which allelic exclusion is defective.

In addition to SNPs, humans exhibit copy-number polymorphisms (CNPs), which result from relatively large deletions or insertions of certain segments of the genome. One study showed that individuals differed by 11 CNPs with an average length of 465 kb. Calculate the fraction of the human genome represented by copy-number variants.

Question: Why is transcriptionally active chromatin 10 times more susceptible to cleavage by DNase I than transcriptionally silent chromatin?
