1. Draw a simplified model of a cis-regulatory element with multiple trans-acting factors up-regulating gene expression. Your simplified model must include: a double-stranded DNA molecule labeled with its appropriate orientation (3' and 5', etc.), an area of DNA highlighting the gene of interest to be transcribed, a highlighted area showing the promoter region, one cis-regulatory element upstream of the promoter with its specific transcription factor • RNApol + a general transcription factor + a TATA binding protein all bound to the appropriate area (think about where these bind before transcription starts), an upstream enhancer with its transcription factor bound to it, ally the TSS. and All parts must be labeled and in the correct area to earn full credit. **I suggest using different colors for this drawing problem**.

8 There is a promoter of a tumour suppressor gene in a mutant cancer cell line, and discover that instead of a nucleosome free region 5’ of the transcription start site there are nucleosomes bound. What would be the likely consequence on transcription of this gene? I am not sure about what is the outcome, normally it binds to the nucleosome free region 5' of the transcription start site to initiate transcription. Now, it binds with nucleosomes. What will happened? Is the DNA cannot transcripted successfully? Due to the transcription needs a naked DNA to process while in nucleosomes, DNA has been wrapped up. Thank you.
A bacterial species has a hypothetical sigma promoter that has the following sequence: TTGGCA - 18 bases - TATAAT What change in the level of transcription would there be if the sequence was mutated to: TTCGCA -18 bases -TATAAT 1.The mutation would move the promoter away from consensus and reduce the level of transcription 2.No change the consensus TATAAT sequence in the same. 3.The mutation would bind the promoter to the consensus and produce normal levels of transcription 4.The mutation would inhibit the promoter thereby inhibiting transcription
