Question

In humans, alpha 1-antitrypsin is a protease inhibitor required to maintain lung elasticity. This protein is produced by the liver. The following diagram shows how a liver cell synthesizes functional alpha1-antitrypsm molecules, using the information encoded by the corresponding gene, A1AT. The following table lists four events that occur during the expression of the A1AT gene. Number these events m the order In which they occur; these numbers correspond to the numbers in the diagram. Then, name the class of controls involved in regulating each event.

Explanation / Answer

The answer would be " POSTTRANSLATIONAL REGULATION" as glycoylation on newly synthesised protiens is done as posttranslational modification in er/golgi ....

Hope it helps ... Regards
