A Eukaryotic Gene That is Regulated by Three Activator Proteins

Question

A eukaryotic gene that is regulated by three activator proteins is said to be under
A)triplet regulation.
B)individual control.
C)self-regulation.
D)combinatorial control.
E)elastic control.

Accepted Answer

Combinatorial control refers to the regulation of a gene by multiple transcription factors, each binding to a specific regulatory site on the gene. In this case, the gene is regulated by three activator proteins, indicating that its expression is controlled by the combination of these three factors.
