There are five known families of enzyme complexes that actively move or displace nucleosomes, hydrolyzing ATP in the process, three of which are particularly important in transcriptional activation. Which of the following statement is/are correct regarding these nucleosome remodeling complexes?

I. SWI/SNF remodels chromatin so that nucleosomes become more irregularly spaced, and stimulate the binding of transcription factors. It includes a bromodomain near the C-terminus of the active ATPase subunit, which interacts with acetylated histone tails.

II. Some members of a family, SWR1, are involved in deposition of the H2A.Z histone variant in transcriptionally inactive chromatin. 

III. NURF, a member of the ISW1 family, remodels chromatin in ways that complement and overlap the activity of SWI/SNF. These two enzyme complexes are crucial in preparing a region of chromatin for active transcription.

The function of light is to excite a specialized chlorophyll in the reaction centre either by Direct absorption or more frequently, via energy transfer from an antenna pigment, This excitation process can be envisioned as

a.) An electron from the lowest-energy filled orbital of the chlorophyll to the highest-energy unfilled orbital

b.) An electron in the upper orbital is only tightly bound to the chlorophyll and is difficult to fetch the electron nearby molecules

c.)  The electron in the upper orbital is only loosely bound to the chlorophyll and is easily lost if a molecule that can accept the electron is nearby

d.) The promotion of an electron from the highest-energy filled orbital of the chlorophyll to the lowest-energy unfilled orbital

An example of coordinate control is the down-regulation of ribosomal RNA synthesis in response to amino acid starvation, which will cause synthesis of ribosomal proteins to be limited.  What is the correct order of the following events that participate in the signaling process?

1. Binding of stringent factor to the ribosome.

2. Formation of the unusual nucleotide ppGpp.

3. Formation of the unusual nucleotide pppGpp.

4. Uncharged tRNA binds in the ribosomal A-site.
