Question
In eukaryotic transcription what is the function of Mediator?
A. Mediator connects to alternative slicing sites and acts as a termination protein, thus promoting production of shortened proteins. B. Mediator connects histones to DNA to reform chromatin DNA structure after transcription is finished. C. Mediator connects upstream regulatory proteins, bound at enhancer or inhibitory sites, to DNA pol II at the transcriptional start site. D. Mediator connects DNA pol II with general initiation factors that activate transcription and form open reading frames.Explanation / Answer
C- Mediator connects upstream regulatory proteins bound at enhancer or inhibitory sites to DNA pol II at the transcriptional start site.
