Some transcription factors, such as leucine zipper proteins, form homodimers or heterodimers. How does this increase
the complexity of available strategies of gene regulation? What will be an ideal response?
The example given in the text proposes three regulatory proteins: A, B, and C. If these form
dimers, three homodimers and three heterodimers are possible. Having multiple combinations
of regulatory proteins increases the possible mechanisms available for gene regulation.
