A lack of this nonprotein molecule would result in the inability of the cell to "turn off" genes:
A)operon
B)inducer
C)promoter
D)repressor
E)corepressor

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A corepressor is a nonprotein molecule that binds with a repressor protein, enabling it to bind to the operator site on DNA and prevent transcription. Without a corepressor, the repressor protein would not be able to effectively block transcription, resulting in the inability of the cell to "turn off" genes.
