In addition, accessibility of the DNA determines if a gene can be transcribed or not. Moreover, there is regulation at the RNA level. Determining if and which part of theContinue reading “Gene expression, a case of regulation”

And also that protein accumulated is not equal to protein that is actual able to do what it is made for. So here an explaination about gene expression, protein accumulation, why are they not the same,Continue reading “Gene expression ≠ protein accumulation”
