Document Summary

Wb or cw cause 90 degree bend. Rna binding protein binds to and blicks the acceptor site of intron 1 in the cdki gene. In rna processing, the next available acceptor site would be used. The functional cdki protein requires amino acids encoded in exon 3. The protein produced when exon 2 is present is only 20 amino acids long. The protein produced when exon 2 is absent is 50 amino acids long. Which genes would be transcribed if the cell receives the division signal only? (tfs, a, A b c d and e true. Deletion of the tata box from the importin gene false. Blocking of the start codon from the tfa fene of the skin pathway to prevent translation false. Phosphorylation of the nuclear localization sequence from tfa of the neuron pathway to allows its binding to improtin. A mutant cell is found where tfa is found in the nucleus even when no signal is present.
