Transcription of eukaryotic genes can be repressed in various ways. These include the four mechanisms
1. Competition |
a-Repression is caused by recruiting histone modifiers that alter nucleosomes in ways that inhibit transcript |
2. Inhibition |
b-A repressor binds to a site on DNA beside an activator and interacts with that activator, occluding its activating region |
3. Direct repression |
c-By binding to a site on DNA that overlaps the binding site of an activator, a repressor can inhibit binding of the activator to a gene and thus block activation of that gene. |
4. Indirect repression |
d-A repressor binds to a site upstream of a gene and, by interacting with the transcriptional machinery at the promoter in some specific way, inhibits transcription initiation. |

Homeotic genes contain a homeobox sequence that is highly conserved among very diverse species. The homeobox is the code for that domain of a protein that binds to DNA in a regulatory developmental process. Which of the following would you then expect?

Following statements are regarding to the establishment of ventral axis in Drosophila.
A. Ventral follicle cells synthesize Pipe. Pipe signal sulfates ventral vitelline proteins.
B. GD cleaves Snake to its active form and forms a complex with Snake and uncleaved Easter proteins.
C. Sulfated vitelline membrane proteins bind Gastrulation-defective (GD).
D. Easter protein is cleaved into its active form. Cleaved Easter binds to and cleaves Spätzle; activated Spätzle binds to Toll receptor protein.
E. Dorsal protein enters the nucleus and ventralizes the cell.
F. Toll activation activates Tube and Pelle, which phosphorylate the Cactus protein. Cactus is degraded, releasing it from Dorsal.
Which of the following is the correct sequence?
