Which of the following is NOT an explanation for how one gene can produce more than one protein?
A)posttranslational methylation and phosphorylation
B)different groups of polypeptides associating to make different proteins
C)various cuts and splices of mRNA
D)different carbohydrates bonded to the protein

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Different groups of polypeptides associating to make different proteins do not explain how one gene can produce more than one protein. This process refers to how different proteins can assemble from various polypeptides, not how a single gene can lead to multiple proteins. The other options (A, C, D) are mechanisms by which a single gene can indeed lead to the production of multiple protein variants through post-translational modifications, alternative splicing of mRNA, and glycosylation.
