(generally exist or function on its own if it was separated from the rest of the protein) DNA-Binding Domain (TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS) - correct answer Protein structure that has a high affinity for DNA, and so binds to it when the two molecules are in the same vicinity. Example: 1) Transcription Factors (which bind to promoter region) var gene - correct answer Variable Gene Colocalization - correct answer Refers to observation of the spatial overlap between two (or more) different fluorescent labels, each having a separate emission wavelength, to see if the different "targets" are located in the same area of the cell or very near to one another. Upregulation - correct answer Increasing response to a stimulus. -AscII, -BrnII, -Mtrll - correct answer The dash in front is not saying -bannans -apples ... Free energy of reaction - correct answer keq=1 means ∆G=0 keq>1 means ∆G=(+) keq<1 means ∆G=(-) Work for a spring - correct answer Power when only given velocity and force - correct answer
