Which process results in termination of eukaryotic transcription?

In this diagram of the process of transcription, what is a primary function of the proteins labeled D?

Imagine a mutation occurs that changes the start codon of a gene to a serine codon. Which of the following best describes the most likely outcome?

Use the codon table to describe the type of mutation in terms of how it would affect the amino acid sequence. Wildtype:  5′-UAC AAA AUA CAG CGG-3′ Mutant:    5′- UAC AAA AUA CAC CGG-3′

mRNA transcribed from the genes of  ______________ organisms allow for coordinated regulation of several proteins at once by controlling initiation of transcription through regulatory regions shared by multiple genes. In contrast, ____________ organisms coordinate regulation of transcription of multiple genes by the action of specific transcription factors.

Which is NOT a function of the spliceosome?

During regulation of the lac operon, one of the conditions required for expression of the operon is the presence of lactose within the bacterial cell. This is because, in the form of allolactose, it interacts with the lac repressor and causes it to shift into an inactive state.  Therefore, allolactose acts as a ____________ during regulation of the lac operon. 

Imagine a mutation  occurrs that weakens or eliminates motifs in the core promoter. Which of the following best describes the outcome?

In the diagram below, where does the RNA polymerase II bind?
