14. (6 points) Answer ONE of the two. Clearly indicate which you are choosing. If you answer both, I will grade the shortest answer. What would you predict would happen to transcription initiation, elongation, and termination if you had a mutation in the following region of DNA: 35 region The inverted repeat sequence immediately before a string of 6 As nswer by first describing why this region is important in wild-type cells and then what . you would predict would happen if the region was mutated. Justify your answer

Explanation / Answer

- 35 region is the promoter for transcription. The sequence of promoter essential for the RNA polymerase to recognise particular site. The promoter is at that position where the transcription initiate. If mutation occurs in the - 35 region that means in promoter then RNA polymerase does not recognise the site for the initiation.
