Phytоchrоmes аre mоlecules thаt chаnge light stimuli into chemical signals, and they are thought to target light-activated genes in plants. A study was conducted to determine how certain cell proteins were made in a plant cell using a phytochrome. Figures 1 and 2 represent findings from the study. In the first part of the diagram, inactive phytochrome P r in the cytoplasm becomes active phytochrome P f r that enters the nucleus in the presence of red light. The next part of the diagram shows that P f r is bound to P I F 3 that is bound to a G Box Promoter and that P f r is also bound to a Transcriptional Complex that is bound to a T A T A box on DNA. A bent arrow above a shaded rectangle to the right of the T A T A box points to the right and is labeled Transcription. An arrow points from the shaded box to a circle labeled M Y B. In the last part of the diagram, the M Y B labeled circle is bound to another Promoter and also contacts a Transcriptional Complex that is bound to a T A T A box on DNA. A bent arrow above a shaded rectangle to the right of the T A T A box points to the right and is labeled Transcription. An arrow points from the shaded box to the label Cell Proteins. Figure 1. Phytochrome response to exposure to red light In the first part of the diagram, active P f r in the cytoplasm becomes inactive P r in the presence of far red light. The next part of the diagram shows an arrow labeled Far Red Light pointing to free P r in the nucleus and away from both P I F 3 bound to a G Box Promoter and a Transcriptional Complex bound to a T A T A box on DNA. A label above a shaded rectangle to the right of the T A T A box reads No Transcription. A second label below the shaded box reads M Y B Type Transcription Factor. The last part of the diagram shows another Promoter and a T A T A box on DNA. Nothing is bound to the promoter, and a Transcriptional Complex is bound to the T A T A box. A label above a shaded rectangle to the right of the T A T A box reads No Transcription. A label below the shaded rectangle reads Other Genes. Figure 2. Phytochrome response to exposure to far‑red light Use the response models shown in Figures 1 and 2 to justify the claim that phytochromes regulate the transcription of genes leading to the production of certain cellular proteins.
