When the nontemplate strand of a gene is transcribed into RNA, what is likely to result?
A. A complementary sRNA will bind to it and form a functional ribozyme with secondary structure.
B. It will complementary bind to the gene sequence, form a hairpin loop, and transcriptionally repress the gene.
C. The complementary mRNA also transcribed from the template strand will bind to it and halt its translation.
D. A global regulator will identify this as a stress, respond by inducing ribonuclease production, and it will degraded.
