Question

You want to know which cells in C. elegans express your protein of interest (POI) so you introduce DNA that has the regulatory region for the gene that encodes for POl upstream of the coding region of GFP (green fluorescent protein). You observe the transgenic organism using fluorescent microscopy and see neuronal cells glowing green. You conclude that: (choose all that apply) POl localizes to the nucleus of neurons Pol interacts with GFP the gene that encodes for POl is expressed in neuronal cells the gene that encodes for PO is activated by the same transcription factor as the gene that encodes for GFP since you did not make the POI in your organism, you cannot say anything about the gene that encodes for PO

Explanation / Answer

Answer :- The gene that encodes for Point is expressed in neuronal cells and also the same transcription factor as gene that encodes for GfP as gene express in C.elegans therefore protein get also obtained from this which can be detected while the gene is functioning or not from protein.
