Which of the following play a direct role in regulating gene expression?
I. Enhancer
II. Repressor
III. Epigenetic modifications
A. I only
B. II only
C. II and III only
D. I, II and III
参考答案: D
本题详细解析:
Enhancers and repressors bind to specific base sequences of DNA to regulate transcription and, therefore, gene expression. Epigenetic modifications are, notably DNA methylation and histone modification act as a layer of control, turning genes on or off in response to various internal and external signals, thereby determining which genes are expressed and to what extent. Choices A, B and C are incorrect as they do not include all three.
