How is co-expression induced?

Expert Solution

Co-expression refers to the expression of multiple genes regulated by the same transcriptional control. These could either be the functionally related genes involved in a common biological process or the ones that are interdependent to elicit a particular response in the cell.

For instance - Operon system - An operon consists of multiple genes that have a coordinated expression in reponse to the regulations imposed by the trancription machinery.

So, how the regulation in this co-expression system is imposed?

This control is elicited in different ways:

1. When product of one gene acts as an inducer for the transcriptional activation of another. For eg- In many pigmented flowers, expression of one gene yields a product that induces another to trancribe so that the pigments are formed.

2. Expression from a single promotor- In operons, cluster of genes involved in a single pathway are regulated by a single promoter. for eg- Lac operon.

3. Epigenetic regulations - Certain epigenetic modifications on gene promotors simultaneously activate genes involved in a particular biological activity. for eg- acetylation by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) is one such modification.

a. Use Faraday’s Law to derive the expression for the induced EMF for an ordinary slide generator, being careful to explain the steps, like on an exam. b. Use that to estimate the EMF generated across the wingspan of an airplane flying toward Minnesota. Use the same 55.66 μT pointed 70 degrees downward. The wing span is 35.78 meters and cruising speed is 907 km/h. c. First conceptual question. There is obviously not a circuit or a current for a...

In Java, write class InfixToPostfixConverter co convert an ordinary infix arithmetic expression (assume a valid expression is entered) with single-digit integers (to make things easier) such as (6 + 2) • 5 - 8 / 4 to a postfix expression. The postfix version (no parentheses are needed) of this infix expression is 6 2 + 5 * 8 4 / - The program should read the expression into StringBuilder or String infix and use the Stack and Stack Interface class...

Compare the effects of an aggregate-demand-induced recession with an aggregate-supply-induced recession. How would you recognize that a recession is induced by demand or supply? What policies would be appropriate in the first case and what in the second?

a) Draw the simplest circuit of the nMOS co-source amplifier and subtract the expression of the AC small signal voltage gain. (Note: Drain will have RD and Source will have degeneration resistance RS.) b) Draw the small signal equivalent circuit of the circuit in question (a). Find the expression of the output impedance. c) What is the Miller effect? My English is weak, please have a clean spelling.

Induced current in a magnet

A bar magnet is held vertically with its upper end a little bit below the center of a horizontal metal ring. The upper end of the magnet is its north pole (see Fig.29.12). The bar magnet is now dropped. An observer views the ring from above its center. To this observer, how will the induced current in the ring behave as the magnet falls?The current will flow counterclockwise and be increasing.The current will flow counterclockwise and be decreasing.The current will...
