Gene Expression

What is Gene Expression?  Expression can be defined as: –Shown –Manifested –Articulated We can determine a person’s genes by what is shown or seen in their body.

What is Gene Expression?  Genes contain the specific information for our body  They are instructions for making proteins  Proteins make us: –look the way we do –function the way we do –develop and grow the way we do –behave the way we do –think the way we do

What is Gene Expression?  All cells within an organism have the same DNA, but not all genes are expressed. –Example: a neuron (nerve cell) will express genes necessary for nerve function.  Therefore, some genes are active (or expressed) in some cells and some genes are inactivated

How are genes expressed?  With the help of RNA

Making Proteins Step One = Transcription Step Two = Translation

Transcription 1.Initiation: DNA section with desired gene (the yellow strand) is unzipped by RNA polymerase (the green triangle) 2.Elongation: RNA polymerase adds complementary nucleotides, mRNA strand is made (torquoise strand) 3.Termination: when a stop sequence is reached, mRNA separates from DNA and DNA is re-zipped

RNA Processing  Before leaving the nucleus: –1. Introns are removed or spliced - “junk DNA” –2. Exons (“expressed”) are put back together –3. mRNA leaves the nucleus  See page 204 (fig. 8.26) in your text for more info

Codon  3 letter sequence on mRNA  Carries code for amino acid from DNA Anti-codon  3 letter sequence on tRNA  Complimentary to mRNA codon

1.Initiation: Ribosome finds the first codon of the gene on mRNA (It’s ‘AUG’ for every gene!) 2.Elongation: ribosome shifts down to next codon; tRNA brings in next amino acid, repeats 3.Termination: ribosome reaches a “stop” codon, protein is released Translation
