What will be an ideal response? Title: What DNA elements are likely to be hypersensitive to digestion by DNase? Post by: Beunique334 on Feb 12, 2018 Ans: The promoters of actively transcribed genes are particularly hypersensitive to DNase digestion. The binding of transcription factors to the promoter causes the displacement of nucleosomes, exposing to the promoter to RNA polymerase but also to DNase action.
