Document Summary

Inrons (or intervening sequences) are noncoding sequences located between exons: removed from the pre-mrna and are not present in the mature mrna, variable in size and may be very large (muliple kb) Exons (both coding and noncoding sequences) are composes of the sequences that remain in the mature mrna ater splicing. The mature messenger rna contains both coding and non-coding sequences. The non-coding sequences are untranslated and are therefore referred to as the 5" or 3" untranslated region. Diferences in the iniiaion, elongaion, terminaion and processing of transcripts between. 10 and -35bp regions upstream of mrna start site. Several genes can be transcribed on one mrna transcript. Mrna does not undergo further processing transcripion and translaion can occur simultaneously terminaion involves an rna hairpin sequence followed by 6 as, polymerase falls of (rho-independent mechanism) Tata box and caat box about -20 and. Transcripion factors bind dna, which then recruits the polymerase.

1 DNA sequences found in introns provide [A] amino acid sequence information.

[B] regulatory information.
[C] no known useful information.

[D] structure for the gene.
[E] alternative DNA splicing possibilities.

3. The TATA box is a(n)
[A] sequence close to the promoter region of many genes.
[B] square-shaped sequence.
[C] enhancer consensus sequence.
[D] activator sequence necessary for proper translation.
[E] None of the above

5. Regarding genes and gene expression, which of the following is not a difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes
[A] Eukaryotic DNA does not contain a TATA box close to the initiation site as does prokaryotic DNA.

[B] In eukaryotes, RNA polymerase requires

'transcription factors'or initiation.

[C] Prokaryotic genes are often grouped together in

operons.

[D] In eukaryotes, the regulation of several genes at once requires common control elements in each of the genes.
[E] There is a diversity of eukaryotic polymerases that is reflected in the diversity of eukaryotic promoters.

10) In eukaryotic cells, a repressor

[A] is made of DNA.
[B] binds to the enhancer region to block transcription. [

C] is located both upstream and downstream from the promoter.
[D] binds to the operator to block RNA polymerase.

[E] binds to a silencer to reduce transcription rates.

Coordinated regulation of genes in eukaryotic cells [A] is the result of positioning the same regulatory sequence in front of each gene.
[B] results from all of those genes being under the control of one promoter.

[C] occurs because related genes all have the same

operons.
[D] occurs because enhancers cause DNA to bend.
