A new protein molecule may become activated or disabled by enzymes. This method of gene expression control works by ____.

A) preventing DNA replication
B) loosening DNA from histones
C) preventing RNA processing
D) preventing translation
E) preventing post-translational modification

Question

Julisa Cerda · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : E, Explanation :  The correct answer is E) preventing post-translational modification. This method of gene expression control involves the activation or deactivation of protein molecules through the addition or removal of specific functional groups or other protein molecules after the protein has been synthesized. This process is crucial for the proper functioning of proteins and can affect their activity, localization, and interaction with other molecules.
