Regulatory Transcription Factors May Be Regulated By

Question

Regulatory transcription factors may be regulated by 
A) phosphorylation.
B) binding of carbohydrates.
C) lipid modifications.
D) sulfation.

Accepted Answer

Regulatory transcription factors are often regulated by phosphorylation, which can activate or inactivate the protein and affect its ability to bind to DNA and regulate gene expression. Binding of carbohydrates, lipid modifications, and sulfation do not typically play a role in regulating transcription factors.
