Eukaryotic Post-Transcriptional Regulation
Multiple Choice
Multiple ChoiceMicroRNAs and small interfering RNAs both function similarly in "silencing" genes. What are two ways in which they may act?
A
Inhibit RNA splicing and bind to complementary DNA sequences to prevent transcription
B
Cut up mRNAs using the Dicer enzyme and bind to complementary mRNA sequences to prevent translation
C
Cut up mRNAs using the Dicer enzyme and bind to complementary DNA sequences to prevent transcription
D
Promote the degradation of mRNA and inhibit RNA splicing
E
Promote the degradation of mRNA and bind to complementary mRNA sequences to prevent translation
