what is transcriptional control?
mRNA stability and promoter efficiency
whats is translational efficiency?
ribosome binding site, codon usage,stringent response
what is a key feature of rapid response to the enviroment from mRNA
instability
what is a reflection of the intercation between RNA polymerase and the promoter
level of mRNA
what does DNA dependant RNA polymerase transcribe
DNA to RNA
what does DNA dependant RNA polymerase require
-no primer required
-Mg2+ to operate
-initiation equires promoter
what does the structure of E.coli RNA polymerase include?
α,β,β’,ω,σ subunits-RNA polymerase halo enzyme
catalytic site,large enzyme
what is the role of E.coli RNA polymerase?
binds transiently and directs the enzyme to specific initiation site
what is the reason for having around 1 error every 100 ribonucleases
RNA polymerases lack proofreadig 3’->5’ exouclease activity found in DNA polymerase
endospores form due to what encountering stress?
Gram-positive bacterium bacillus subtilis
sigma H is present when?
low levels of vegatative expoentially growing Bacillus cells-σ43
