Based on what you know about the structure of GPCRs, they must have:
a)One internal start transfer sequence near the C terminus
b)One ER signal sequence near the N terminus
c)One internal start transfer sequence and one internal stop transfer sequence
d)Multiple internal start transfer sequences and multiple internal stop transfer sequences
choose the right answer
On the basis of these results, is the C sequence an operator or a regulator gene? Explain your reasoning.
What is meant by the term attenuation? Is it an example of gene regulation at the level of transcription or translation? Explain your answer
