RAG1 and RAG2 proteins are associated with which of the following?
A) Recombination during prophase I of meiosis
B) Nucleotide excision repair
C) Transposition
D) Integration of a bacteriophage into the host genome
E) Site-specific recombination in antibody genes

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

RAG1 and RAG2 proteins are associated with site-specific recombination in antibody genes, specifically the process of V(D)J recombination. This process involves rearrangement of DNA segments encoding the variable regions of immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes, leading to the generation of diverse pool of antibodies and T cell receptors.
