You called this gene INDARK and hypothesize that the gene is regulated transcriptionally. Describe how you would use the promoter sequence to seek transcription factors that control the expression of INDARK. Describe the experiments that you would conduct to address the issue (5 points)   2. There are two target proteins that you hypothesize to interact with INDARK protein. How would you test this interaction? Describe the experiment (5 points)
