Overview: Conducting the Genetic Orchestra
• Prokaryotes and eukaryotes alter gene expression in response to their changing environment.
![Page 3: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Bacteria often respond to environmental change by regulating transcription
• Natural selection has favored bacteria that produce only the products needed by that cell.
• A cell can regulate the production of enzymes by feedback inhibition or by gene regulation.
• Gene expression in bacteria is controlled by the operon model.

OPERONS
• An operon is the entire stretch of DNA that includes the operator, the promoter, and the genes that they control
regulator promoter operator genes
![Page 6: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Induction System
• System initially off• The presence of an inducer (usually a
substrate that needs to be broken down) turns it on.
• The inducer binds to the repressor and makes it inactive so transcription can occur.
• The inducer acts as an allosteric effector and changes the shape of the repressor.
• Ex- Lac (lactose) operon
![Page 8: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Repressible System
• System initially ON, transcription ongoing and making a product
• Operator can be turned off by a repressor which is made active by being activated by a corepressor molecule (usually the end product)
• Ex – tryptophan operon – trytophan acts as a corepressor inhibitng further synthesis of enzymes involved in the process
![Page 11: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Positive Gene Regulation
• Some operons are also subject to positive control through a stimulatory protein, such as catabolite activator protein (CAP), an activator of transcription
• When glucose (a preferred food source of E. coli) is scarce, CAP is activated by binding with cyclic AMP
• Activated CAP attaches to the promoter of the lac operon and increases the affinity of RNA polymerase, thus accelerating transcription
![Page 15: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

• When glucose levels increase, CAP detaches from the lac operon, and transcription returns to a normal rate
• CAP helps regulate other operons that encode enzymes used in catabolic pathways
![Page 17: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Control of Gene Expression in Eukaryotes
![Page 18: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• In response to environmental signals
• Essential for development and cell specialization in multicellular organisms
• RNA is important in gene expression.
![Page 19: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• All cells contain the same DNA so controlling gene expression is essential.
• Human cells only 20% genes expressed; only 1.5% code for proteins
• Commonly occurs at level of transcription; hence, gene expression = transcription of DNA
![Page 20: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Eukaryotic gene expression can be regulated at any stage

1) State of chromatin (nucleosomes)
• Heterochromatin – genes not expressed due to tightly wound DNA
Chemical modification
- Histone acetylation – promotes transcription by inhibiting binding between nucleosomes so keeps DNA spread out; also may recruit transcription factors
- Methylation of DNA – inhibits transcription (indicated in inactive X)
![Page 25: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Epigenetic inheritance – not involved DNA sequence but inherited defects in chromatin modification enzymes
There may be more to inheritance than genes alone. New clues reveal that a second epigenetic chemical code sits on top of our regular DNA and controls how our genes are expresse.
![Page 26: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
2) Transcription Level
• Remember, transcription factors bind to DNA promoters, then RNA polymerase binds to promoter region to form the Transcription Initiation Complex
![Page 27: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Transcription Factors:General
Bind to RNA polymerase and each other to initiate transcription of all protein-coding genes
Low rate of transcription
![Page 28: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Specific Transcription Factors
• (a) enhancers: proximal (close to promoters) and distal; specific for a gene
• (b) some are repressors and can block anywhere in the scheme and can also recruit proteins to affect chromatin structure
• (c) enhancers contain control elements (up to 10 different ones); the combination is specific for transcription factors. Also explains how genes in a related pathway are correlated (like flags on mailboxes to know which mail to pick up). The combination signals which genes are expressed.

3. Post-transcriptional Control
• Alternative RNA splicing (mRNA can last a long time and be subject to various intron splicing)
•The mRNA life span is determined in part by sequences in the leader and trailer regions
![Page 36: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

• Alteration of polypeptide - can be cut, groups added, or transported to target locations
• Selective degradation of proteins – the protein ubiquitin are added to proteins for degradation. Proteasomes recognize them and destroy them.

Noncoding RNAs play multiple roles in controlling gene expression
• Only a small fraction of DNA codes for proteins, rRNA, and tRNA
• A significant amount of the genome may be transcribed into noncoding RNAs
• Noncoding RNAs regulate gene expression at two points: mRNA translation and chromatin configuration
![Page 40: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Effects on mRNAs by MicroRNA’s
• MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small single-stranded RNA molecules that can bind to mRNA
• These can degrade mRNA or block its translation
![Page 41: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Hairpins?
• Long RNA precursors fold on themselves and look like hairpins. The hairpins are cut off and an enzyme called Dicer trims the ends. One strand becomes a microRNA (miRNA).
• These bind with proteins and block translation or degrades the mRNA.
![Page 42: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

• An estimated 1/3 of human genes are regulated by miRNAs
![Page 44: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Small Interfering RNA’s
• The phenomenon of inhibition of gene expression by RNA molecules is called RNA interference (RNAi)
• Cells cut up the RNA into small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that can inhibit expression like miRNA’s
• siRNAs and miRNAs are similar but form from different RNA precursors
![Page 45: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
CANCER AND GENE EXPRESSIONCancer results from genetic changes
that affect cell cycle control
• Cancer can be caused by mutations to genes that regulate cell growth and division
- mutagens are chemicals, X-rays, tumor viruses in animals
![Page 46: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Oncogenes and Proto-Oncogenes
• Oncogenes are cancer-causing genes• Proto-oncogenes are the
corresponding normal cellular genes that are responsible for normal cell growth and division
![Page 49: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Conversion of a proto-oncogene to an oncogene can lead to abnormal
stimulation of the cell cycle
• Amplification of normal growth-stimulating gene
• Translocation of growth gene under control of a more active promoter
• Point mutation in control element or gene itself to make a hyperactive or degradation resistent growth protein.
![Page 50: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

Tumor-Suppressor Genes• help prevent uncontrolled cell growth
• Tumor-suppressor proteins
–Repair damaged DNA
–Control cell adhesion
–Inhibit the cell cycle
![Page 52: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
How do cancer genes work?
• 30% cancers – ras proto-oncogene gene is mutated
Ras gene codes for a protein that stimlates the production of a cell cycle stimulating protein; mutations cause a hyperactive protein
• 50% cancers – p53 gene mutated; codes for a transcription factor for growth-inhibiting proteins. These proteins bind to a p21 gene whose product binds to CDK’s and halt cell cycle. It can also activate DNA repair genes or “suicide genes” if DNA can’t be repaired.
![Page 53: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

Multistep Model of Cancer Development
• More than one somatic mutation is needed
• Both alleles must be defective
• In some, genes for telomerase becomes activated and cells divided continually
Breat cancer gene
![Page 56: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Inherited Predisposition and Other Factors Contributing to Cancer
• Individuals can inherit oncogenes or mutant alleles of tumor-suppressor genes
• Inherited mutations in the tumor-suppressor gene adenomatous polyposis coli are common in individuals with colorectal cancer
• Mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene are found in at least half of inherited breast cancers
![Page 57: Ap Chap 18 Pp](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022013111/54c6ac9a4a7959c6518b45c9/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
• Even if you have cancer genes, it does not mean you will have cancer.
• Genes can be modified by siRNA’s, epigenesis, and the environment
