Questions and Answers

What is the role of General Transcription Factors in forming Enhancer-Promoter loops?

  • Initiating transcription at the Enhancer region
  • Mediating the interaction between the Enhancer and Promoter (correct)
  • Stimulating translation at the Promoter region
  • Breaking down the Enhancer-Promoter loops

How can mistakes in forming the BMP4 Enhancer-Promoter loop lead to webbing between digits in humans?

  • By enhancing transcription in the webbing cells
  • By causing cell death in the webbing cells (correct)
  • By triggering cell growth in the webbing cells
  • By preventing cell differentiation in the webbing cells

What is added to the 3' end of mRNA after introns are removed?

  • PolyA tail (correct)
  • 5'-cap
  • Exons
  • Spliceosome
