Certain proteins can bind to specific DNA regulatory sequences by entering
A)the major groove of the DNA and reading the nucleotide base pairs.
B)the minor groove of the DNA and reading the nucleotide base pairs.
C)the major groove of RNA and reading the nucleotide base pairs.
D)DNA's major groove by using DNA polymerase and reading the nucleotide base pairs.
