Question

What are the three main levels of gene regulation?

Answer 1

Gene regulation:

1. The process by which genes in the DNA cell are controlled is called gene regulation.

The three main levels at which gene regulation are listed below:

1. Level of Transcription: Regulated by controlling the production of mRNA from a gene.
2. Regulating the RNA splice: Here removal of introns and joining exons takes place which will lead to the production of proteins. So controlling splicing can help in regulation.
3. Level of Translation: Here synthesis of protein from mRNA can be controlled.
