Question

what do you mean by gene regulation..?

Answer 1

Gene regulation is the informal term used to describe any mechanism used by a cell to increase or decrease the production of specific gene products (protein or RNA). Cells can modify their gene expression patterns to trigger developmental pathways, respond to environmental stimuli, or adapt to new food sources. All points of gene expression can be regulated. This includes transcription, RNA processing and transport, translation and post-translational modification of a protein, and mRNA degradation.
