Steroid hormone are chemical messengers that interact or bind with the DNA inside the nucleus

George Beadle and Edward Tatum gave molecular definition of a gene while working on nutritional mutants in Neurospora. They exposed spores of the fungus Neurospora crassa to X-rays and other agents which damage DNA and cause alterations in DNA sequence (mutations). They observed that mutant fungal strains which lacked one or another specific enzyme, sometimes results in the failure of an entire metabolic pathway. It was concluded that a gene is a segment of genetic material that codes for one enzyme; the one gene–one enzyme hypothesis which was modified to one gene–one polypeptide, because many genes products are not enzymes and many gene code for one polypeptide of a multi-subunit protein. Correct option is C.

The one gene-one enzyme hypothesis is the idea that genes act through the production of enzymes, with each gene responsible for producing a single enzyme that in turn affects a single step in a metabolic pathway. The concept was proposed by George Beadle and Edward Tatum in an influential 1941 paper.  Beadle and Tatum noted that it was "entirely tenable to suppose that these genes which are themselves a part of the system, control or regulate specific reactions in the system either by acting directly as enzymes or by determining the specificities of enzymes".

Beadle and Tatum did classical experiments on Neurospora crassa to prove that in a multistep biochemical pathway, each step is controlled by different enzymes and each of these enzymes are encoded by specific gene. This is called as one gene one enzyme hypothesis. Option A is the correct answer.

The one gene - one enzyme hypothesis is the idea that genes act through the production of enzymes, with each gene responsible for producing a single enzyme that in turn affects a single step in a metabolic pathway. The concept was proposed by George Beadle and Edward Tatum in an influential 1941 paper on genetic mutations in the mold Neurospora crassa.

One gene one enzyme was given by Beadle & Tatum in which he explains the concept that one gene is capable of producing one enzyme only and is responsible for one individual step in the metabolic pathway.

The one gene - one enzyme hypothesis is the idea that genes act through the production of enzymes, with each gene responsible for producing a single enzyme that in turn affects a single step in a metabolic pathway. Beadle and Tatum proposed this concept.

One gene one enzyme hypothesis had many defects so it changed to one gene-one polypeptide.  According to one gene-one polypeptide hypothesis, the information enclosed in one gene is sufficient to form one polypeptide only. Genes control the synthesis of all proteins. Some proteins are enzymes and some are hormones.  Hemoglobin molecule consists of two different polypeptides alpha and beta which are formed by two different genes.

According to one gene-one polypeptide hypothesis, the information enclosed in one gene is sufficient to form one polypeptide only. Genes control the synthesis of all proteins. Some proteins are enzymes and some are hormones. As we know that proteins are made up of polypeptides- long chains of amino acids. Some proteins consist of two or more polypeptides linked and twisted around each other. For eg, hemoglobin.

AMP is known as Adenosine monophosphate which is involved in many biological processess. It is a type of nucleotide phosphate. It  consists of phospate group and nucleobase adenine. It is used to regenerate ATP.

Producer site produces pre mRNA, which after processing becomes mRNA. Its expression is under the control of many receptor sites. mRNA later takes part in protein synthesis during translation. 

The one gene-one enzyme hypothesis, proposed by George Wells Beadle in the US in 1941, is the theory that each gene directly produces a single enzyme, which consequently affects an individual step in a metabolic pathway. Beadle and Tatum worked with a simple organism: common bread mold, or Neurospora crassa. Using Neurospora, they were able to show a clear connection between genes and metabolic enzymes. With a series of the experiment they first created mutant Neurospora and found which metabolic pathway was broken in mutants by growing them in a variety of nutritional medium. Their work produced a revolution in the study of genetics and showed that individual genes were indeed connected to specific enzymes.
