#Question id: 2617

According role of regulatory proteins, RNA polymerase and one or more promoter elements, mostly three levels of transcription are there, choose correct one

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

  1. RNA polymerase occasionally binds the promoter spontaneously – No transcription

  2. Binding of the repressor to the operator- Basal level

  3. If both the repressor and activator are present and functional, the action of the repressor typically overcomes that of the activator - Activated level

  4. A & B both are correct

You and your lab partner have isolated 20 new mutant yeast strains that are defective in synthesis of threonine, an amino acid. These Thr- mutants do not grow on minimal medium, but they do grow on minimal medium supplemented with threonine. Ten of your Thr- mutants (numbered 1 through 10) were isolated in a strain of mating type a (MAT a). The other 10 Thr mutants (numbered 11 through 20) were isolated in a strain of mating type α (MAT α). You and your lab partner cross each of the MAT a strains to each of the MAT α strains, and you include crosses to the appropriate wild-type strains. Your experimental observations are shown in the table below, where (-) indicates diploids that did not grow on minimal medium and (+) indicates diploids that did grow on minimal medium.
