Which modification of the terminator region of a gene would specifically prevent rho-independent termination?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Rho-independent termination is mediated by the formation of a stem-loop structure followed by a stretch of adenine nucleotides in the mRNA transcript. Therefore, a modification in the adenine-rich sequence of nucleotides of the terminator region would specifically prevent rho-independent termination. The other options do not directly affect the formation of the stem-loop structure and the adenine stretch, which are essential for rho-independent termination.
