gene regulation Flashcards
read slide 1 memorize chart a
and know word meanings
there are regulatory process/sequences in
prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA
Regulatory sequences are
stretches of DNA that interact with regulatory proteins to control transcription
how transcription is regulated
genes—>protiens—–> regulats transcription
regulating transcriptions
regulates gene expression and epigeneitcs
central dogma
that DNA codes for protien—>protiens determines phenotypes
why do cell types and protiens expressed in cells diffrentiate
because all cells except sex cells have the same DNA
the protein decides if a gene can
turn on and off
- chromatin modificaiton (eukaryotic cell)
DNA unpacking involving histone acetylation and DNA demethylation
-how and when a specific gene is available for transcription
- transcription(eukaryotic cell)
Initiaiton of transcription can be regulated ( how those transcription factors will come together
- RNA processing(eukaryotic cell)
-post transcription
–how introns and exons treated and what final mature mRNA protien is created
(eukaryotic cell) 4.translation
initiation of translation can be controlled to regulate gene
(eukaryotic cell) 5 protein processing
such as cleavage and chemical modification
-how that protein is folded to get the 3 diff structure of portiens
- (eukaryotic cell) transport to cellular destination
cellular function (such as enzemymatic activity structuarl support)
operators are
on and off switch
