Cоrtisоl is а signаling mоlecule thаt regulates gene expression in the cells of a mammal.  Cortisol enters a cell and binds to a protein called a cortisol receptor. Binding of cortisol facilitates the phosphorylation of the cortisol receptor, which then can enter the nucleus and affect transcription. A cortisol receptor can activate or repress the transcription of a gene, depending on the structure of the gene's regulatory element.  The figure below shows a system of two genes whose transcription is regulated by cortisol. The IL10 gene codes for a protein called interleukin 10. The BGLAP gene codes for a protein called osteocalcin. A researcher isolated these genes and placed them in solutions. Each solution contained specific concentrations of cortisol. All solutions contained a high concentration of RNA polymerase. The next figure shows the data resulting from the experiment. Each graph shows the relative abundance of mRNA in the presence or absence of cortisol. The graph on the left shows the effect of cortisol on the expression of the IL10 gene. The graph on the right shows the effect of cortisol on the expression of the BGLAP gene. True or false? A cortisol receptor likely binds to the promoter of the IL10 gene.
