Question

A scientist modified the structure of a promoter region of a gene. What could be its effect on transcription and translation?

A. RNA polymerase no longer binds to the DNA, so DNA will be directly translated into protein.

B. RNA polymerase will now bind to the coding region of the gene and carry out transcription.

C. RNA polymerase may not be able to bind to the DNA, so transcription will not occur

Answer 1

RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region as a result it triggers transcription of the gene ...
when promoter structure is varies the binding of RNA polymerase would be affected as a result transcription may not occur..
