25
Q

Termination of Transcription

A

Rho Independent: Hairpin CG pause, long chain of U’s for dissociation
RHo Dependent: Hairpin CG pause, Rho to dissociate RNA pol

26
Q

Bacterial Response to external elements

A

Catabolite Activator (CAP) –> Via CAMP –> Binds DNA: PROMOTING
Lac Operon: Lactose presence releases DNA Operon
increased Transcription of B-galactosidase

27

30
Q

Name of mRNA 5’ Cap

A

G5’ppp’5N +2nd methyl group added

31
Q

Splicesome Key Steps

A
  1. 2’OH Nucleophilic Attach by Branch A to 5’ end OH
  2. Formation of Lariat Structure
  3. 3’OH nucleophilic Attack by 5’ end to 3’end of intron
32
Q

Splicesome Components

A

SSnRNP’s (U2 and U6 core)

33
Q

Frasier Syndrome

A

Kidney / Urogenital Defects
+/- KTS isoforms: 1:2 instead of 2:1
+ isoforms dont bind DNA

34
Q

Degradation of mRNA

A

5’ - 3’ Exonuclease

  • Decapping
35
Q

Initiation of Translation on Ribosomes (what consensus) in Bacteria

A
  1. Shine-Dalgarno Consensus 5’ end

Attracts 30s ribosome

36
Q

Whats the initiator tRNA?

A

Met-tRNAi + met tRNA (elongation)

37
Q

What is IRES and viruses involved

A

Internal Ribosome Entry Site:

Hep C IRES: Virus deactivates normal translation mechanisms, uses IRES for its own proteins

38
Q

Scanning Ribosome Model in Eukaryotes

A

40s Binds 5’ Cap (Eukaryotic INitiation Factor- EIF4)

Met-TRNAI Locks on

39
Q

Actual process of Translation (steps)

A
  1. Subsequent Aminoacyl-TRNA binds to A site
  2. Peptide Bond formation (transfer of peptide from P to A)
  3. Translocation from A to P
  4. Discharged tRNA leaves through E site
40
Q

Assistance in Translation:

A
  1. Elongation Factor Proteins 1: initial Aminoacyl-tRNA A site binding
  2. EFP 2: Translocation of ribosome
  3. Peptidyl Transferase
41

Global Modification of Translation Control

A

Eukaryotic INitiation Factor 2 (binds 40s subunit) and phosphorylation

42
Q

Specific translation Modifications:

A

Ferritin MRNA (Sequesters Iron)
Low Iron –> Iron Regulatory Protein Increases inhibition
Iron Response Element in 5’UTR inhibited –> No ferritin

43
Q

Riboswitches

A

Thiamine Levels directly control rate of thiamine synthesis: AA’s post translation

44
Q

Proteasome Steps

A
  1. Recognition
  2. Disassociation (Ub spat Out)
  3. Translocation: fed into shaft (2 outer and 2 inner rings)
  4. Destruction: protein degraded
45
Q

Ub ligation
