Cells regulate protein synthesis using the coordination of several different mechanisms.
Cells regulate protein synthesis using the coordination of several different mechanisms. Discuss TWO of the specific mechanisms of gene regulation in eukaryotic cells from the list below and describe how the timing and coordination of these two mechanisms is important to gene regulation. Promoter Enhancer Methylation Acetylation Alternative splicing
I think the two most commonly discussed in beginner biology or early biochemistry courses are alternative splicing and methylation. You might want to discuss those. The mechanisms can be a bit tough to explain w/o some background in organic chemistry. I can explain a bit of of both if you're familiar with organic or molecular biology.
