How Is Gene Expression Regulated? The amounts and types of mRNA molecules in a cell reflect the function of that cell. In fact, thousands of transcripts are produced every second in every cell.

It is this carefully controlled pattern of what is called "gene expression" that makes a liver cell different from a muscle cell, and a healthy cell different from a cancer cell. But how can ...
