Q

Beadle Tatum experiment

A

One gene for every enzyme
(DNA for one RNA is true)

Took a mold and looked to see what it needed to grow.

With complete diet it grows
With restrained it died

It only grew with the vitamins so they concluded it was a vitamin

Separated out the vitamins and found it needed Niacin

Q

Prokaryotes
Transcription
Initiation

A

DNA promoter sequence with a promoter protein
Promoter sequence (-35 and -10”tata box”) +1 is where transcription starts

Sigma factor protien attaches to promoter regions to flag down rna polymerase 2

Sigma + poly = holoenzyme

Q

Elongation both (transcription)

A

Poly reads 3 to 5 and
Synthesis 5 to 3
All rna types

Rna is the same as the nontemplate strand of dna or coding strand

Q

Prokaryotes termination
Rho independent (transcription)

A

No rhoprotien

Lots of c and g in a large sequence create hair pin loops in the rna and those bump the rna off of the dna and poly

Q

Prokaryotes termination
Rho dependent (transcription)

A

Sequence in dna triggers a rut patch in rna which makes it so a Rho protien attaches to the end of the rna strand

It cathches up to the polymerase as it gets to the end of the protien and bumps it off the strand separating the rna from the dna and the poly

Q

Eukaryotes initiation (transcription)

A

Promoter protien: transcription factor/inciation protiens / complex

GC box
Octamer box
Tata box

Has enhancer and silencer protiens that can activate certain genes in specific cells

Q

Eukaryotes elongation for transcription exception difference

A

There are 3 types of rna polymerase for making different types of rna

We care about type 2 because it makes pre mRNA

Q

Termination for eukaryotes transcription

A

It’s complicated you don’t really need to know. polymerase falls off

17
Q

Rna processing

A

Only happens in eukaryotes

Turns pre mRNA into mRNA ready to leave the nucleus

18
Q

Transcription and translation coupling

A

Only in prokaryotes
Dna is transcribing rna and at the same time ribosomes attach to the rna and begin translation making polypeptides

19
Q

Things that are important for making pre MRNA into mRNA

A

5’ guanine cap
3’ poly a tail
Intro. Splicing

20
Q

5’ G captain

A

Adds a 5’ - 5’ bond
Of the guanine
(Backwards)

Ends up with 3 phosphates

Protects mRNA from nuclease
It lets guards know that it is good to leave

21
Q

3’ poly A tail

A

50-250 adenines normal to create a long tail

Rna stability/protection
Ribosome recognition.
Helps guards know it’s ready to leave

22
Q

Intron splitting

A

Introns are taken out by splyisome and then the exons are then spliced together (this can happen differently which can create variation)

Start codon in exon1
Stop codon in last exon

Before codon 1 is there the 5’ untranslated region
And after the last exon is the 3’ untranslated region

23
Q

Spliceosome

A

Made up of SnRNP
Protiens and SnRNA
And the intron RNA

Beginning of intro is labeled as GU
End is AG

Adenine found in the middle

SnRA binds to Gu and AG
And loops the GU so it is bound with the middle a

Splicisome snips at both ends and pulls the exons together taking out the intron

24
Q

Exon shuffleing
Alternative splicing

A

We can Reaarange exons making different protiens from the the sequence of RNA which allow for greater diversity without changing the sequence

25
Q

TRNA

A

Loops in on itself
Aa attachment on top
And anti codon on the bottom which helps it match up with the right codon

26
Q

Amino Acyl tRNA Synthase

A

Protien that attaches the right peptide to the tRNA

First step
Has 3 active sites one for aa one for atp and one for tRNA

2nd step. Cut off two phosphates making amp which changes the shape of the protien which allows the tRNA to bound with pp which then floats off and is ready to aide in translation
