Drugs used to inhibit which molecules would reduce the amount of antibody produced by hybridomas?
A)proteasome inhibitors
B)protease inhibitors
C)transcription inhibitors
D)antibiotics

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hybridomas produce antibodies through transcription and translation of the genes encoding the antibody. Therefore, inhibiting transcription would reduce the amount of antibody produced by hybridomas. Proteasome inhibitors and protease inhibitors would not have a direct effect on antibody production, and antibiotics may target bacterial cells but not hybridomas.
