Full Description
This examination investigates the role of regulatory sequences in the modulation of gene expression, focusing on how they influence transcriptional activities and subsequent phenotypic outcomes.
The study of these sequences forms a backbone for genetic engineering, synthetic biology, and the development of novel gene therapy approaches.
Candidates will be expected to articulate the function of various regulatory elements, such as enhancers, silencers, and insulators, and describe their interplay with transcription factors.
Discussions may include case studies that illustrate the consequences of mutations in regulatory sequences on gene expression and organismal traits.
Sample Questions
- What roles do enhancers play in gene expression?
- How can mutations in regulatory sequences affect phenotypic traits?
