How do repressors affect promoters?

a repressor is a protein that binds to DNA, which turns off the genes that code for the digestive enzymes. the promoter, located near the digestive enzyme genes, is a section on DNA that serves as the binding site for the enzyme RNA polymers.

What is the doctrine of binding precedent Australia law?

Essentially binding precedent means that if a higher court has ruled on what is substantially the same legal issue, then that ruling is binding on the lower courts. This is designed to build up a consistent body of law, so for example, we dont have 30 different interpretations of 1 section of statute.


How does RNA polymerase know where to start transcribing a gene into mRNA?

The enzyme that synthesizes RNA (RNA polymerase) binds specific DNA sequencesthat typically lie before the gene being transcribed. When everything it needs to start synthesis is properly assembled (any cofactors, etc.), only then can it begin transcribing DNA into RNA.
