Steroid hormones pass through the cell membrane and bind to a specific steroid hormone receptor protein. The combined steroid and receptor protein then bind to a specifiâ¦c sequence of bases in the DNA molecule. This sequence of bases is part of the promotor of a gene.   Binding of the steroid - receptor complex either activates (switches on) or represses (switches off) the gene which is controlled by that promotor.

Finalized in 2001, Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 is a complete overhaul of the Universal Serial Bus input/output bus protocol which allows much higher speeds than the older USB 1.1 standard did.
