In the case of the French flag model. we assume a source of morphogen at one end and a sink at the other and that the concentrations of morphogen at both ends are kept constant but are different from each other. If the cells can respond to threshold concentrations of the morphogen, Thresholds can represent the

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. amount of morphogen that must bind to receptors to activate an intracellular signaling system.
  2. concentrations of transcription factors required to activate particular genes
  3. concentration at any point effectively provides positional information.
  4. amount of morphogen that must bind to receptors to inactivate an extracellular signaling system.

The depicted region contains two genes (cI and cro) and three promoters (PR, PL, and PRM), these promoters are direct the transcription such as;

a) PR and PL are is a weak promoter and only directs efficient transcription when an activator is bound just upstream

b) PR and PL are strong, constitutive promoters, they bind RNA polymerase efficiently and direct transcription without     help from an activator

c) PRM, is a weak promoter and only directs efficient transcription when an activator is bound just upstream

d) PRM are strong, constitutive promoters, they bind RNA polymerase efficiently and direct transcription without help from an activator
