Answer 21

a other core promoter than the TATA box.

Question 22

leucine zipper

Question 23

mediator

Question 24

nuclear receptor

Question 25

promoter-proximal element

Question 26

repressor domain

Question 27

silencer sequence

Question 28

SWI/SNF chromation-remodeling complex

Question 29

tat

Question 30

TATA box

Answer 30

a conserved seequence on the DNA. it is found -26-31 basepaairs upstream. if the seequence is not right, trascription starts at the wrong place

Question 31

TATA box-binding protein (TBP)

Question 32

upstream activating seequence (UAS)

Question 33

zinc finger
