Genes which need to be coordinately regulated but are not in operons may be regulated by common transcription factor binding domains GC regions CAAT regions TATA boxes TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
Enhancers differ from promoters in that they are restricted to a specific gene they initiate transcription their orientation can be inverted without effect they are adjacent to the start codon TRUE ANSWER : ? YOUR ANSWER : ?
