BIOS 345 - Molecular Genetics Spring 2016 HOMEWORK 2 Below are shown four edited figures from a recent research publication. The first figure shows...

1. For the three figures that show research data (Figures 2, 3, and 4) explain clearly what the data mean. What is the relationship between promoter/UAS structure and the steady state level of the encoded RNA? What are the important cis information and trans-acting factors that influence RNA quantity derived from these constructs in yeast cells? 

2. Propose a reasonable model that would explain how transcription from different promoter/UAS sequences influences the steady state levels of the encoded RNA.
