How do cells regulate gene expression using alternative RNA splicing? Alternative RNA splicing determines which genes are transcribed to mRNA. Alternative RNA splicing determines which proteins are produced from each gene. Alternative RNA splicing determines which genes are underexpressed. Alternative RNA splicing determines how fast certain proteins are degraded.

1.) What is the ultimate product of gene expression? In other words, what is the DNA in a cell used for? 2.) Gene expression can be regulated at multiple different points. Which of the following processes regulate expression by controlling the rate of transcription of genes? DNA methylation Histone modification X inactivation Transcription factor binding Alternative splicing mRNA degradation posttranslational modification (phosphorylation for example) 3.) Why do you think most regulation of gene expression involves regulating the rate of transcription rather than translation or mRNA and protein degradation?
