Multiple Choice
Multiple ChoiceA hormone signal reaches a cell and causes the cell to produce a large quantity of Protein X. After some time, the hormone signal disappears and the cell no longer needs a large quantity of Protein X. How will the cell remove the excess protein?
A
The repressor protein for the Protein X gene will stop the transcription of the gene.
B
The excess Protein X will be tagged with ubiquitin proteins and degraded over time.
C
The Protein X mRNA will be bound by a microRNA blocking its translation.
