Gene Expression
• Genes “control” phenotype• Cellular environment affects gene
expression• Involves extensive intracellular signaling• Tissue, development, disease specific

II. Gene expression in eukaryotes

List the differences
![Page 20: Gene Expression: Transcription and Translation, Chapters 5 and 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062316/5681678c550346895ddcadcd/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
contrast prokaryotes with eukaryotes
PROKARYOTES• no nucleus• 1 RNA polymerase• cotranslation• Polycistronic mRNA• One promoter shared by a few genes• All of gene is coding = no modification of mRNA
20
![Page 21: Gene Expression: Transcription and Translation, Chapters 5 and 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062316/5681678c550346895ddcadcd/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Eukaryotes - differences1. 3 RNA polymerases
RNA pol I – transcribes rRNA genes
RNA pol II – transcribes mRNA and snRNAs
RNA pol III – transcribes tRNA genes
2. Split genes• Genes have coding and non-coding sequences • Non-coding removed from mRNA
3. transcription and translation in separate compartments
4. Different regulatory elements21
![Page 22: Gene Expression: Transcription and Translation, Chapters 5 and 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062316/5681678c550346895ddcadcd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Split genes in eukaryotes• exons - coding (expressed sequences)• introns = intervening sequences – non-coding but transcribed into mRNA
22
Takifugu rubripes has few introns and far less repetitive DNA
400 million bp genome but same # genes as humans

b-globin geneExpression of the b-globin gene is a typical process. This gene contains two introns and three exons. Interestingly, the codon of the 30th amino acid, AGG, is separated by an intron. As a result, the first two nucleotides AG are in one exon and the third nucleotide G is in another exon.
![Page 42: Gene Expression: Transcription and Translation, Chapters 5 and 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062316/5681678c550346895ddcadcd/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Intron information
• Variable in size• May regulate gene expression • Accumulate mutations• Alternate splicing = more than one protein
from a gene• GU AG consensus sequences• Some genes do not contain introns

Components of the spliceosome
• snRNPs + mRNA = spliceosome
“Snurps” are sn RNAs + proteins
– small nuclear RNAs (U1, U2, U4, U5, U6 ~ 100 bases)

• RNA can possess enzymatic (protein) activity
• RNA-based life would be able to engage in enzymatic activities and store genetic information

3. Splicing of mRNA
alternate splicing to form protein isoforms
85
The fetal acetylcholine receptor, has variable kinetics during postnatal development. RT-PCR revealed, in addition to the full-length mRNA, three new forms lacking exon 4. One also lacks 19 nucleotides from exon 5, with a 43 residues shorter N-terminus. A third one lacking the complete exon 5 predicts a subunit without transmembrane segments. These forms, generated by alternative splicing, may account for the kinetic variability of the acetylcholine receptor channel.
