Experiment:Placed the below regulatory sequence (with 3
enhancer elements) in front of a reporter gene that can measure
the level of transcription for the gene. The level of transcription
achieved with the particular collection of enhancers is shown in
the graph at right. An X on the enhancer means that that
enhancer sequence was deleted.
What does the data above indicate about the function of
enhancer 1? Correct Answer it functions as a repressor
