Regulation of gene expression
A) can only occur at the level of transcription of mRNA from the DNA code.
B) occurs because of the rate at which translation is carried out.
C) occurs by stabilising the mRNA for the gene.
D) happens at numerous levels, including transcriptional and translational control.
E) does not include alteration to the protein products of translation.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Regulation of gene expression happens at multiple levels, including but not limited to transcriptional control (how much mRNA is made from DNA), post-transcriptional control (how mRNA is processed and stabilized), translational control (how often and efficiently mRNA is translated into protein), and post-translational control (modifications to proteins after they are made).
