Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hormone response elements are DNA segments that contain repeated sequences separated by several bases and bind members of the nuclear receptor superfamily of proteins. While they are conserved in eukaryotic cells, they are not found in prokaryotic cells. Therefore, the correct choice is I and II. Choice A is incorrect because hormone response elements are not found in prokaryotic cells. Choice C is incorrect because although they are conserved in eukaryotic cells, hormone response elements are not found in prokaryotic cells. Choice D is incorrect because hormone response elements are not found in prokaryotic cells. Choice E is incorrect because hormone response elements contain repeated sequences separated by several bases and are not found in prokaryotic cells.
