Presentation Transcript

  1. Exam #1 is T 9/23in class • (bring cheat sheet)

  2. DNA is used to produce RNA and/or proteins, but not all genes are expressed at the same time or in the same cells. How do cells control which genes are expressed? Protein

  3. Signal Transduction External Stimulus Internal Effector… Effector Effector Effector Response(change in cellular components and/or gene expression) Perception (by receptor) Stimulus

  4. How do cells express genes?

  5. The relationship between DNA and genes a gene promoter coding region terminator non-gene DNA

  6. Fig 13.2 Combinations of 3 nucleotides code for each 1 amino acid in a protein.

  7. Fig 12.2 • Overview of transcription

  8. Fig 9.8 Each nucleotide carbon is numbered

  9. Fig 9.22 Each nucleotide is connected from the 5’ carbon through the phosphate to the next 3’ carbon.

  10. Fig 9.22 Each nucleotide is connected from the 5’ carbon through the phosphate to the next 3’ carbon.

  11. Fig 12.8 The relationship between DNA and RNA

  12. Fig 12.8 What is so magic about adding nucleotides to the 3’ end?

  13. How does the RNA polymerase know which strand to transcribe? Fig 12.7

  14. Reverse promoter, reverse direction and strand transcribed. RNA 5’ 3’ 5’ 3’ 5’

  15. Why do polymerases only add nucleotides to the 3’ end? RNA RNA DNA DNA U U similar to Fig 11.11

  16. Error P P-P

  17. Error P The 5’ tri-P’s can supply energy for repair U P-P-P P

  18. similar to Fig 11.11 Incoming nucleotide Error repair on 5’ end not possible. 5’ U 3’

  19. Need for error repair limits nucleotide additions to 3’ end. RNA RNA DNA DNA U U similar to Fig 11.11

  20. When to express a gene is critical a gene promoter coding region terminator non-gene DNA

  21. Fig 12.5 Promoter sequences in E. coli

  22. Transcription initiation in prokaryotes:sigma factor binds to the -35 and -10 regions and then the RNA polymerase subunits bind and begin transcription Fig 12.7

  23. Fig 12.8 Transcription Elongation

  24. Fig 12.11 Termination of Transcription

  25. Fig 12.13 Eukaryotic promoters are more diverse and more complex

  26. in eukaryotes: transcription factors are needed before RNA polymerase can bind Fig 12.14

  27. Fig 12.3 Transcription overview

  28. Some genes code for RNA (tRNA, rRNA, etc) mRNA is used to code for proteins RNA synthesis Protein

  29. rRNA is transcribed by RNA polymerase I

  30. tRNA is transcribed by RNA polymerase III

  31. mRNA is transcribed by RNA polymerase II

  32. mRNA is processed during transcription and before it leaves the nucleus. (transcribed from DNA)

  33. Fig 12.23 Addition of the 5’ cap, a modified guanine

  34. Fig 12.24 Addition of the 3’ poly-A tail After the RNA sequence AAUAAA enzymes cut the mRNA and add 150 to 200 A’s

  35. What do the cap and tail do? (transcribed from DNA)

  36. Luciferase Gene (from fireflies) Expressed in a Plant

  37. 100% 4.7% 0.34% 0.22%

  38. The cap and tail have overlapping and distinct functions 5’ untranslatedregion 3’ untranslatedregion Protects from degradation/ recognition for ribosome Protects from degradation/ transport to cytoplasm

  39. DNA Composition: In humans: Each cell contains ~6 billion base pairs of DNA. This DNA is ~2 meters long and 2 nm wide. ~3% directly codes for amino acids ~10% is genes In a single human cell only about 5-10% of genes are expressed at a time.

  40. Introns are spliced out of most mRNAs before they leave the nucleus. (transcribed from DNA)

  41. Serve as recognition sites for the binding of the spliceosome • Conserved sequences related to intron splicing Sequences shown in bold are highly conserved

  42. Splicing an intron: intron removal. Fig 12.22

  43. Splicing an intron: reattach exons. Fig 12.22

  44. Alternate splicing of introns/exons can lead to different proteins produced from the same gene. Fig 15.16

  45. Complex patterns of eukaryotic mRNA splicing (-tropomyosin) Fig 15.16

  46. Fruit fly DSCAM, a neuron guide, 115 exons over 60,000 bp of DNA 20 exons constitutively expressed 95 exons alternatively spliced For over 38,000 possible unique proteins

  47. Size and Number of Genes for Some Sequenced Eukaryotic Genomes

  48. RNA editing: Some mRNAs are changed after transcription by guide RNA Tbl 12.3 http://www.cc.ndsu.nodak.edu/instruct/mcclean/plsc731/genome/genome9.htm http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/R/RNA_Editing.html
