Presentation Transcript

  1. What does the word Promoter mean? It is the place at which RNA Pol II binds. But the word is incorrectly used to describe Enhancers plus Promoter.

  2. Initiation by RNA Polymerase II

  3. TFIID recognition site is TATAA How often is this site found in the genome? 1/45 Once every 1000 nucleotides 109 nucleotides or 106 times

  4. Transient transfection More Cells But on a per cell Basis expression levels of -gal is about the same

  5. Stable transfection

  6. Recruitment Model

  7. Model Building of DNA

  8. Early efforts to make a DNA model

  9. Watson’s Early attempt To create Double Helix

  10. Jerry Donohue: Worked on dNTPs Told Watson that It was the Keto form Found under physiological conditions

  11. B-DNA

  12. B-DNA
