Which gene would most likely be under inducible expression control?
A) A gene that encodes for a protein required for the electron transport pathway
B) A gene that encodes for a protein critical for assembly of the bacterial cell wall
C) A gene that encodes for a subunit of the RNA polymerase holoenzyme
D) A gene that encodes for a protein that is produced in response to oxidative stress
E) A gene that encodes for a component of a bacterial flagellar assembly

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inducible expression controls are used to upregulate specific genes in response to specific stimuli or environmental conditions. In this context, a gene that encodes for a protein that is produced in response to oxidative stress is most likely to be under inducible expression control.
